Using Array in CALCDATE

ach

Hi There,

Wonder if you can help with syntax want to calculate StartDate from WORKDATE - value of array M.

StartDate := CALCDATE('-i'+'m',WORKDATE);

So if array i =4 will perform the following:

CALCDATE('-4M',WORKDATE);

Thanks

As I understand your question, you have declared the following variables

VAR
  M : ARRAY [someSize] OF Integer;
  i : Integer;

Now, you wish to subtract M months from the WORKDATE -- right? If so, then I think what you are trying to do is this:

StartDate :=
  CALCDATE(
    STRSUBSTNO('<-%1M>',M[i]),
    WORKDATE);

The angle brackets around the date expression are used to avoid problems in a multi-language environment.
