Dennis,
How would you compare the PV1:45 (Discahrge Date) to the current system date? Could this be done in an if statement?
I would think you would have to get the current clock time and convert that to format you want before doing your comparison.
Maybe something like this???
#get the system time in seconds
set curTime [clock seconds ]
# change the format of the time to YYYYMMDD
set newTime [clock format $curTime -format {%Y%m%d}]
# this function gets the difference
set difference [expr {$newTime – $PV1_45}]
# setting the format to days only
set fmt “%d”
#reducing the difference to days
set curDif [clock format $difference -format $fmt]
#If the message was discharged more than 10 days ago
if {$curDiff < 10}
Do what ever
I have not tested this and am not sure it would work. Also there may be a short way to make this happen.
