I am having problems using this function.

The field is defined as HYYMDS, so it is displayed as
2003/12/31 00:00:00

I can NOT change the format in the master file since there are times when I do need to display the time.

How can I display this field as
12/31/2003



Thanks,

Leo ;-)

There are a specific set of subroutines available to manipulate datetime fields, and I think the one you need here is this -

NEW_DATE/YYMD = HDATE(datetime_fld, NEW_DATE);
