( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
I'd like to be able to check if a given date is between 2 other specific dates (these 2 will always be within the 60 days mof the date when the script is run). I have seen postings that indicate using the Date::Calc module - actually the Date-Calc module which I read somewhere is the compiled binary version of the module so I installed it via PPM. However in browsing this module, I found that it contains C components so requires the C compiler which I do not have on my Windows 2000 system. Or perhaps there is some easier way to determine if the given date falls between the 2 other specified dates? Btw, I am new to Perl. I also went to http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/perl/win32-bin/ but got "The page cannot be found" for each link I tried there. I'd appreciate any help that can be offered.Thanks. Stacy

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
