28.1 Date Formats

Date translation generation is useful when you use World Writer to print date information from the database.

With Date Translation Generation (P00365) you create a file that contains different date formats. These formats are derived from the Julian date used by the system. For example, when you run a date translation generation, a system date of 010131 appears in the following formats:

Date Format
Month 01
Day 31
Year 01
Century 20
System Date 01/31/01
Month Name January
Date Text January 31, 2001
