Re: DATEDIFF, Julian

[Alan Mead]

Marc,

If the manual says it's available, then it's a bug if it's not working.  Can you send a tiny example of your syntax and be more explicit about what you're trying to do and what it's not doing correctly?

For example, here is a page with some SPSS syntax about this dates, including DATEDIFF.

If syntax is too scary or creating a tiny example is too difficult, then maybe it will suffice to have a verbose explanation of what you're trying to do and what it's not doing correctly.

Dear Mr Hollenbach –

 

I need a bit of help with PSPP and if you are not the source, I apologize for troubling you and would greatly appreciate being referred to the proper person.

 

In the case that you are available, I have the following questions:

1.       Is DATEDIFF implemented?  The manual is clear, but I can’t get it to work.

2.      If not, how would I get a Julian date?

 

Thank you for your time.  And once more I apologize for the intrusion.
