Function to get the current date only.

Post by Minhajuddin »

Hi there,

We use TimeDate() to get both Time and date. But is there a function to get only Date or only Time?

Thanks for all your help.

Sure, both Date() and Time() are available.

Thanks Chulett,
But these functions return Date and Time in the Datastage Internal format right?

Yes. Are you looking for PX specific functions that return external formats?

CurrentDate
CurrentTime
CurrentTimestamp
all of the above are px specific solutions.
