texte = > So you prefer that all date> arithmetic should result in an integer (days) rather than a date?Not necessarily.Adding a number to a date makes sense to me.{04/02/97} + 3 results in {04/05/97}Also,subracting a number from a date makes sense to me.{04/02/97} - 3 results in {03/30/97}So, I think I vote for three date arithmetic operations. subtracting one date from another date, resulting in a signed integer adding an integer to a date, resulting in a date subtracting an integer from a date, resulting in a dateThanks.Jim Shaughnessy------------------------------------To leave this talk list send an email to macjordomo@smithmicro.comwith BODYunsubscribe WebDNA-Talk------------------------------------
