@strdate

Hi

I want to create a string with a date format corresponding to each element in workfile.

The @strdate command works fine on a quarterly page, but I cannot make it work on a weekly or monthly page....?

That is

Code: Select all

pageselect q
alpha date=@strdate("DD.MM.YYYY")


works, but

Code: Select all

pageselect m
alpha date=@strdate("DD.MM.YYYY")


or

Code: Select all

pageselect w
alpha date=@strdate("DD.MM.YYYY")


does not work....

How can I create a string with a date format corresponding to each element in workfile on a weekly or monthly workpage?

Hello,

Curious, I don't experience a problem with @strdate on a weekly or monthly workfile. Does the following produce the same issue?

Code: Select all

alpha date = @datestr(@date, "DD.MM.YYYY")

it does not work either....

Silly question, but you currently have the sample set to 2010 onwards. If you scroll down on the date series, are the dates available from 2010 onwards...?
