Dates

[Tim Pashon]

I’m trying to use the system variables to get the current date in an xlate.  I would like the format to be, 2011-04-12.  I use @date and @now and I always get the month to be APR instead of 04.

Isn’t there a way to get the month as a number instead of alpha characters?

Thanks

Here is how I have been able to work with the date. This is a Pre-proc in a copy statement.

set date [clock format [clock scan today] -format %Y-%m-%d]

set xlateOutVals [lindex
