Hi,

I am trying to pass the value of the year, month and date seperately to a webpage using automise 7.44

The Computer date is 4th April 2008

start-year=$%DATEADDX::YY::dd::-8%$ = 2008
start-month=$%DATEADDX::pp::dd::-8%$ = 4
start-day=$%DATEADDX::dd::dd::-8%$ = -4

I would have expected 3 for the month and 27 for the day.

Am I using this incorrectly? If so how do I extract the required info?

btw this code used to use just date and dateadd but only worked for 3/4 of the month, hence the move to DATEADDX

Thanks in advance for you assistance.
Jason

I tested with 7.43 and 7.44
Used the 'Variables Syntax' utility
Used your variable
I got 3 for the month and 27 for the day.

which task are you using?
if you just applied the 7.44 patch, maybe it was not applied correctly?

This is working now.

I think after the patch it wanted a full restart rather than just turning the engine off, patching then on again.

Thanks for your help
