Automagic Forum

Hi everyone!

I have just purchased Automagic and this is my first post here.

I'm trying to find a way to use getDate() (or any other function) to find the date 5 days ago.

Any help would certainly be appreciated!

Thanks.

Hi

A date in Automagic is stored as the number of milliseconds since 1970. You can use regular +/- operations to modify a date or use the addDays function:
d = addDays(getDate(), -5);
or
d = getDate() - 5*24*60*60*1000;
