I have just created a small Excel file with different variation of the month_names as I need these from time to time for mapping purposes in different apps.
In that context I wonder why, when I use the function >> DATE(Monthstart(Today()), 'MMM-YY') << QlikView generates
- Jan
- Feb
- Mar
- Apr
- May
- June
- July
=> For Jan to May, just 3 letters (as specified in the DATE() function), but 4 for June and July ...
I have set the month_names on the "Main" tab of the script to 'Jan;Feb;Mar;Apr;May;June ...' - is that the reason? Then QlikView just looks this up in the primary SET commands when you use this specific date_code?
