I can see of a museum using Remedy to track their collections inventory and if 
an item is out on loan to another museum.

I think they picked January 1, 4713 B.C. as 0 for a DATE as it is also the 0 
for an Oracle Julian date

Question -- has ANYBODY -- EVER -- used any date in BC?

And if so -- why?

** John,

as far I remember it's the number of days passed since 01.01.1970 for DATE and 
number of seconds since 01.01.1970 00:00:00 for DATETIME. Try it.

I am getting closer :)


If the .arx value of a DATE field is 2455767 .... 

How does that get converted to human readable?

Meaning -- does anybody know the conversion strategy?


1) Upload (which gets parsed for field names, types etc...)

2) Select fields you want to see

3) View

4) Party!!!

Hi,

We have a tool that can do something like that, and more.

It is called RRR|ArxToHTML, and can be downloaded from:
https://www.rrr.se/cgi/tools/main#rrrArxToHTML

You will get the best result if you have a def-file with the
form-definition, as it will allow the tool to sort field by the form
layout, use labels instead of database names, selection field values etc.
You will get a result list with the normal entry-list-fields and links to
individual records.

The quick way to use it to convert an ARX-file to a table is to run it
like this:
rrrArxToHTML.exe -a xxx.arx -glf ALL -l xxx.html

This will create a single HTML-file with a table including all fields of
the ARX-file.
