Assuming you're on Unix - there is an environmental setting "tz" for timezone. Try man on tz or timezone.

Regardless, the @DATE and @TIME are different by about 5 hours. Is there a setting in UniObjects that determines or sets the time zone that I'm in? -----Original Message----- From: Bob Witney [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 27, 2004 6:52 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [U2] [UD] Where does UniObject get @DATE and @TIME from? Yes @TIME on Universe is the proces start time as an intiger (regardless of what the book says) and TIME() is the actual time with decimals i.e 42716 42716.8421 42716 42717.8422 42716 42718.8424 Bob -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Brian Leach Sent: 27 October 2004 11:15 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [U2] [UD] Where does UniObject get @DATE and @TIME from? @DATE and @TIME are not necessarily the current date and time, they are the date and time the current command/program started. I've seen this as differences in a program between @TIME and TIME(), which always returns the current time. I'm away from my server at the moment and can't verify this, but I suspect that @TIME might be the time that your UniObjects session began.

Hello all, I have a file with 2 dictionaries. One called DT and the other TM: DT 001 V 002 @DATE I also tried DATE() and got the same thing 003 004 005 5R 006 S TM 001 V 002 @TIME I also tried TIME() and got the same thing 003 004 005 6R 006 S When I run a simple UniQuery statement, I get exactly what you'd expect LIST WORK.ORDER DT TM SAMPLE 5 WORK ORDER. DT... TM.... 584367 13449 74797 593333 13449 74797 628402 13449 74797 663471 13449 74797 698540 13449 74797 5 records listed HOWEVER... When I run this through UniOjects, I get: LIST WORK.ORDER DT TM SAMPLE 5 01:48:20 Oct 27 2004 1 WORK ORDER. DT... TM.... 584367 13450 6500 593333 13450 6500 628402 13450 6500 663471 13450 6500 698540 13450 6500 5 records listed I am running UniData 5.2 on AIX 4.3.2. It's around 20:48 on 10/26/2004 as I write this. The time and date is right on our Unix box and it's correct on my XP PC. My control panel, regional and date and time setting are correct also. I am on the East Coast of the US. (and it seems to be off by 5 hours, hmmmmmmmmmmm) Where does UniObjects get the @DATE and @TIME variables? Thanks.
