Dear Sytske,
 
Try using "q time" command and then extract the info out of "result" var using the "substr" command.
'q time'
dd = substr(result,11,2)               //get the day from the "displayed" time.
 
Regards,
Greg

All,

 

When drawing a map, does anyone know how to draw the date/time on it for which

the map is valid (as defined in the .ctl file)?

 

Thanks in advance for your help,

Sytske
