Re: SQLBase & SQR Help



You might want to try this

Begin-select
@DateToChar(sysdate,'MM/DD/YYYY') &YourVar
from TableName
end-select

Where TableName has only 1 or 2 rows so it doesn't take any time.  Then,
of course, you can use &YourVar as your variable for the current date

I hope this helps

        I need to know how to access the current date in an
        SQR Batch program that is connecting to a SQLBase
        database.

        I use SYSDATE in "where" clauses, but it doesn't work
        in other contexts.

        Thanks in advance for any help.
