Hi,
I want to subtract Time(only) from Date(DateTime) and convert the result to date format. My experiments are getting me nowhere. Is there any shortcut to do this?

to substract time i.e take of the time part from the DateTime, you can use a 'substr' string to extract the date from the field
for ex. to get the date from date time field which looks like '22-MAR-2002 10:22:12' use substr(datetime,1,11) = which gives the date part. then use to date function to convert the date part into date format.
hope it helps. if it did not work, then post in the web that it did not work and i'll can say something else
