Julian Date conversion question

Said · 2004-09-01

Hi,

Does anyone know how to convert a Julian Date (eg. 731578) into Navision date field format?

Thanks in advance

Add the Julian date to whatever the base date is for your Julian calendar. For example, 01010000D + 731578 produces 12292002D.

That's interesting.
Does anybody know the base date for the Julian calendar?

Look at http://www.tondering.dk/claus/cal/node3 ... 0000000000

there are formulas to calc from gregorian to julian and back...

or use convertor on http://www.fourmilab.ch/documents/calendar/

Thank you for all replies.
But when I'm setting the refDate - I got the message that the refDate is not a valid date... What am I doing wrong?

Expr1 := 'CQ+1M-10D'; // Current quarter + 1 month - 10 days
Expr2 := '-WD2'; // The last weekday no.2, (last Tuesday)
Expr3 := 'CM+30D'; // Current month + 30 days
RefDate := 12292002D;
Date1 := CALCDATE(Expr1, RefDate);
Date2 := CALCDATE(Expr2, RefDate);
Date3 := CALCDATE(Expr3, RefDate);
MESSAGE(Text000 + Text001 + Text002 + Text003,
RefDate, Expr1, Date1, Expr2, Date2, Expr3, Date3);

Has anyone created a codeunit with Julian2Gregorian and Gregorian2Julian?

Now, I have created such functions:

JulianDayNo2GregorianDate(JulianDate : Integer) : Date

JulianDayNo2JulianDate(JulianDate : Integer) : Date

GregorianDate2JulianDayNo(GregorianDate : Date) : Integer

JulianDate2JulianDayNo(JulianDate : Date) : Integer

The functions are availible as download here:

(I hope, it doesn't matter that the website is in german ;-) )

Date2YYDDD(DateIn : Date) YYDDD : Code[5]
Year:=DATE2DMY(DateIn,3);
Day := DateIn - CALCDATE('-CY',DateIn) +1;
YYDDD:=COPYSTR(FORMAT(Year),3,2);
YYDDD:=YYDDD+FORMAT(Day,3);
YYDDD:=CONVERTSTR(YYDDD,' ','0');

Howdy, Stranger!
