Yes, you can only return the types that Harbour supports.

Are these all the types supported by (x)Harbour?

Those types are in Harbour hbusrrdd.ch so I guess yes, not sure if xHarbour is exactly the same

Antonio,

Ok Im using those. Cross my fingers!

How to use SQL CONVERT to convert expressions like dtos(ddate)+val(ndays) ?

Does anyone has a CH file with all defs for CONVERT ?

Antonio,Enrico,

Do you know What is the corresponding SQL SELECT ... CONVERT to dtos()?

SELECT * FROM table WHERE date = '20150328'

Enrico,

Thanks but my question was not clear

This is to be used in :find expression and I get this error.

Args:
[ 1] = C DATAFACTUR LIKE '20140407'
argumentos { DATAFACTUR LIKE '20140407' }
descrição DISP_E_UNKNOWNNAME
ficheiro <nenhuma>
genCode 41: Unknown or reserved
operação FIND
osCode (Não é erro do sistema operativo)
severity 2

Can :find look for date like that ?

Antonio,

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms676117%28v=vs.85%29.aspx

It seems that this format is needed:

DATAFACTUR = #7/22/97#

Antonio,

AHF wrote:DATAFACTUR LIKE '20140407'

Try with:

DATAFACTUR = '20140407'

If you are using MDB try this instead:

Code: Select all  Expand view

DATAFACTUR = #04072014#

(DD/MM/YYYY)

EMG

Antonio, Enrico,

:Find with '20150327' or "20150327" and #20150327# doesnt work always same error.

:Find with 27/03/15 works in all above cases.

I could make a function

Code: Select all  Expand view

FUNCTION ADODTOS(dDate)

  IF RDDSETDEFAULT() = "ADORDD"

      RETURN DTOC(dDate)

  ENDIF

  RETURN DTOS(dDate)
 
 

and replace in code dtos with adodtos.

But a more clean approach was to redesign the original DTOS to cover this.

What is your opinion?

Antonio,

In ADO_GETVALUE there is a function hb_stod I dont know why!

Should I use stod

Decided different approach. What do you think?

Code: Select all  Expand view

STATIC FUNCTION ADODTOS(xDate)
 LOCAL dDate ,cYear,cMonth,cDay

   IF "." IN xDate .OR. "-" IN xDate .OR. "/" IN xDate
       dDate := xDate
   ELSE
        cYear  := SUBSTR(xDate,1,4)
    cMonth := SUBSTR(xDate,5,2)
    cDay   := SUBSTR(xDate,7,2)
    dDate  := CTOD(cDay+"/"+cMonth+"/"+cYear)
   ENDIF
   
   RETURN DTOC(dDate)
 

Antonio,

If it works then keep going, later on we can always modify it

Different date literal formats work with different SQL databases and also depending on settings.

Interestingly American dateformats work with many, because all the software is written by programmers (whatever be their nationality) sitting in USA. But we better stick to international formats.

But the following formats always work irrespective of locale, wherever in the world, and irrespective of locale settings:

Oracle:
WHERE DATEFLD = DATE 'YYYY-MM-DD'

MsSql, MySql and many others

WHERE DATEFLD = 'YYYY-MM-DD'

MSAccess

WHERE DATEFLD = #YYYY-MM-DD#

For ADO FILTERS, irrespective of the datasource.

oRs:Filter = "DATEFLD = #YYYY-MM-DD#"

Note:
1) I know may alternative formats which work with different databases. But here I gave those that work for sure and simple to make.
2) FW_DateToADO() and FW_DateToSQL() may be referred to in the adofuncs.prg
