Manipulating the DATE_AND_TIME data

Simon_Says Posts: 4 Rating: (0)	Hello everybody! I was wondering if anyone here knew how to manipulate the DATE_AND_TIME data to create things such as Timestamps and Julian Dates for serial coding. Currently I am using the READ_CLK (SFC1) function and throwing each byte into a DB to view. But what I really want to do is to use these numbers to calculate a Julian date (3 digit Day of Year). Since the data is in Hex and not an Integer, I am not able to use the math functions. When it is all said and done I will be sending a String to a Part Marker for identification. Has anyone done this before? Thanks for your help in advance. [;)] Simon
