Date comparison issue

[#1]

Hi guys,

I got two dates

set d = 3/16/2014 4:26:55 PM

set d1 = 2014-03-16 16:26:55

I need to compare them.

I tried few things

if (Date($(d)) < Date($(d1)) // gives script line error

if ( $(d )< $(d1)) then // gives script line error

if ( (d )< (d1)) then // even though both dates are same it returns true.

Please help me with it.

Regards,

Saurabh

hello, first of all i sugest you to unify the date format management according the format variables you have defined in your script

check this example

[hectorgarcia · Accepted solution]

SET ThousandSep=',';

SET DecimalSep='.';

SET MoneyThousandSep=',';

SET MoneyDecimalSep='.';

SET MoneyFormat='$#,##0.00;($#,##0.00)';

SET TimeFormat='hh:mm:ss';

SET DateFormat='YYYY-MM-DD';

SET TimestampFormat='YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss[.fff]';

SET MonthNames='Jan;Feb;Mar;Apr;May;Jun;Jul;Aug;Sep;Oct;Nov;Dec';

SET DayNames='Mon;Tue;Wed;Thu;Fri;Sat;Sun';

let d = num(timestamp#('3/16/2014 4:26:55 PM','M/D/YYYY h:m:s TT'));

let d1 = num('2014-03-16 16:26:55');

if $(d)<$(d1) then

let vCompare='d minor than d1';

exit script;

ENDIF

let vCompare='d Equal or bigger than d1';

exit script;

Hi,

Try like this

LET d = Timestamp(Timestamp#('3/16/2014 4:26:55 PM', 'M/D/YYYY h:m:s TT'))

LET d1 = Timestamp(Timestamp#('2014-03-16 16:26:55', 'YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss'))

Now use this variables in script like this

if ( $(d )< $(d1))

Hope this helps you.
