Thanks Yuriy By: Giulio Toffoli - gt78 RE: How to show long from dbfiels as Date 2003-03-19 16:46 Is the long a unix time? Remember that the expression is a line of java code. You can write an expression like.... new java.util.Date( $F{MyField}) More complex.... java.text.FormatDate.getInstance().format( new java.util.Date( $F{MyField}.longValue() ) , "format_string") If your long is in the form of 20030320000000 you can By: Giulio Toffoli - gt78 RE: How to show long from dbfiels as Date 2003-03-19 16:48 ... write something like... (new String(""+$F{MyField})).substring(6,8) + "/" + (new String(""+$F{MyField})).substring(4,6) +"/" + (new String(""+$F{MyField})).substring(0,4) Please note that all code provided is not tested, but coul be a good track.... I hope this helps you Giulio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
