Notice how I trimmed everything up to now down to two lines. This gives you the gist of the conversation so far but makes it easier to read. People reading the exchange will get enough out of the above to remind themselves where we are in the conversation and if necessary they can simply go back and read the entire thread in the archives. -- D'Arcy J.M.

Hi tim,
well i tried what your script but i do have an error

when i jus check the variable i.e yesterday i do get the out put but its in a
different format
datetime.date(2009, 10, 21)
it seems like the conversion that is where the error is coming form
I want it to be like 211009
Thank you
I assume you're running Python 3.1? Try this:
print (yesterday.strftime ("%d%m%y"))
