Hi

How to use current system date,in datastage...waiting for reponse..

thanks in advance
 
Hi,

You would use the Date() function, and then some variation of the OConv() function to change the date from internal to external format. For example, say you want to assign the current date to a variable called StartDate, and format it in yyyy/mm/dd format, you would use:

StartDate = Oconv(Date(), "D4/YMD")

Hope this helps.
