Getting todays Year

HCL Domino Domino Forum

Hi Programmers,

I have this code:

FIELD Comments := @Left (@Text(@Today); “2018”) + "18: " + @Right(@Name([CN];@UserName); " ") + ": ";

…But would like to have the “2018” and "18: " automatically use the current year instead of having to change this code for every new year. I’m sure this is ridiculously easy but I’m not a programmer. Please let me know what the code needs to be.

Thanks, Paul

Hi Paul

Try

FIELD Comments := @Text(@Year(@Today)) + "18: " + @Right(@Name([CN];@UserName); " ") + ": ";

Will give you

"201818: Gaschke: "

But is that really what you want ?

Kind Regards

Simon

PS, I suggest putting your question up on StackOverflow for a faster response.

He’s just after the date, but with a two year date format vs 4.

So

9/10/18 : Gaschke

Personally, I would always use the four digit date, it’s not like systems are running low on memory.
