Strange date formatting behavior

paul_scotchford — Tue, 04 Aug 2015 22:28:25 GMT

Using the following formatting option in the Date() function , the Full Day is truncated and part of the year number is appended ...

Function ... Date("Date", 'WWWW') as FullDayName

Data ... 30Jun2015 = Tuesday015 , 1Jul2015 = Wednesda15 , 4Jul2015 = Saturda15

Days of Sunday, Monday, Thursday, Friday are returned as expected.

Has this been noticed anywhere by anyone? Normally I don't generate the days this way, we load directly from a

SQL date dimension which has full days predefined.

Thanks

Paul

Seems like a duplicate thread, I have responded here: Strange data formatting behaviour

I posted in QlikView too, I've not encountered this before, thought I would ask both audiences.

Thanks
