Yep! Makes me feel brain-dead, but I wasn't expecting dates that old. and now I am understanding the days, as they are going from 1 to 365. Thanks, Dr. Klahn!

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I need to pull dates from an as400 table. I would normally expect a CYYMMDD format. This is something different, and I cannot figure out the format.<br />
Dates are expressed as<br />
800101<br />
800102<br />
etc.<br />
In columns with the title MDY, these are expressed as<br />
10180<br />
10280<br />
etc.<br />
WDJUL, which I assume stands for Weekday, Julian is expressed as<br />
80001<br />
80002<br />
etc.<br />
Anyone have an idea what they are doing here.

Databases are organized collections of data, most commonly accessed through management systems including schemas, tables, queries and processes that allow users to enter and manipulate the information or utilize it in other fashions, such as with web applications or for reporting purposes.

IBM DB2 is a family of relational database server products developed by IBM that have been extended to support object-relational features and non-relational structures like JSON and XML. There are three main products in the DB2 family: DB2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows (informally known as DB2 LUW), DB2 for z/OS (mainframe), and DB2 for i (formerly OS/400), plus a version for IBM's Virtual Storage Extended (VSE) operating system.
