Re: [EXTERNAL] Getting last Friday's date

I "think" it's part of Web Query Express (5733WQX) as an example library

That file appears to have dates from 1900 to 2030 in it.

We have that installed so I have no issue with it.

Greg,
I do not seem to have this table.
Is there a link to the creation and propagation sql?

I use a table from IBM called DATE_CONV for a lot of my date converting

in QWQCENT library.

select dc_date from date_conv
where dc_date <= current_date and dc_day_name='Friday'
order by dc_date desc
fetch first row only;

Result is 2023-08-04

Of course, you can return your date in virtually any date format.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Getting last Friday's date

I need to retrieve the date from last Friday. If it is Friday, I want

the

current date. Anyone have a routine that does that before I start
developing one? Seem like a good SQL problem but the program using it
would be in CLLE.

Thoughts?
