Hello,
I want to store in a user defined variable the result of a variable like {DATEFORMAT(yyyyMMdd)}.
I do not want that my udf contain {DATEFORMAT(yyyyMMdd)} but 20081002.
How do make it ?

Thanks

Can you describe more exactly how you plan to set this up?

I think you need to use a job for this.

You need a user defined variabele.
In you job use the set variable task and use {DATEFORMAT(yyyyMMdd)} as the value.
Now you should have the value 20081002 in your udf.

Hello,
No ErikC, i tested this and the udv contain {DATEFORMAT(yyyyMMdd)} and not the value.
In this case the udv is dynamic variable and I want a static one.
Henrik, I just want the possibility to store in the udv the result value of a dynamic variable.
Or (best) the possibility to choose to keep the variability or not !
For example I want to store the date of the last run of a treatment.

Ok,

So I tried it myself...:-s and you're right!
The variable string {....} is saved into the variable, not the result of it.

So the set variable should have some setting that you want to store the result of the variable in it, not the actual variable string.

I think it's a feature request.

Yes, I suspected this. I am moving this to feature requests.
