SYMPTOM(s):
Why after assigning to a date variable the TODAY FUNCTION it returns today's date
CAUSE:
Why if you try the following:
def var mydate as date.
assign mydate = today.
display mydate.
It returns today's date
FIX:
TODAY Function always returns the system date.
In way to check you can do the following:
DISPLAY TODAY will return your system date (generally today).
DISPLAY TODAY + 1 will return the system date + 1 day (probably tomorrow).
Display TODAY - 1 will return the system date - 1 day (possibly yesterday).
Please refer to documentation.
