day(theDate[,value])

Alternatively, use Date.day.

day(theDate)

returns the day of the month from the theDate expression, which may simply be a date-type attribute value.

day(theDate,value)

creates a new date based on the theDate expression, but in which the day of the month is value. theDate is not changed - unless theDate is an attribute and the attribute is re-setting itself:

$MyDateA = day($MyDate,14) $MyDate is unaltered

$MyDate = day($MyDate,14) $MyDate is changed

Examples. If $MyDate is July 4, 2009 then

day($MyDate) …is 4

If $MyDate is July 4,2009, then

$MyDate=day($MyDate,5) 

will change $MyDate to July 5, 2009.
