Trying to represent Min and Max date on a rtf. template, please help :-(

Question

Hi all,
I'm a little bit disappointed. I make effort to write questions with the hope someone in this forum can help me, but it seems nobody has interest about it.
I try once again:
I am tryin to represent a From Date and To Date. My XML File looks like:
<ServiceRequest
<Created
08/04/2003 07:34:21</Created
<aENumber

As you see the date has the format 08/04/2003 07:34:21, but I want to represent it like 04.08.2003. I have this on my template:
<?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, ‘minYear’, xdoxslt:to_char(concat(substring(Created, 4,2), ‘.‘,substring(Created, 1, 2), ‘.‘,substring(Created, 7, 4)), ‘DD.MM.YYYY’))?>
<?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, ‘maxYear’, xdoxslt:to_char(concat(substring(Created, 4,2), ‘.‘,substring(Created, 1, 2), ‘.‘,substring(Created, 7, 4)), ‘DD.MM.YYYY’))?>
and the loop:
<?for-each:ServiceRequest?>
<?if: xdoxslt:date_diff(‘s’, xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, ‘minYear’), xdoxslt:to_char(concat(substring(Created, 4,2), ‘.‘,substring(Created, 1, 2), ‘.‘,substring(Created, 7, 4)), ‘DD.MM.YYYY’), $_XDOLOCALE, $_XDOTIMEZONE) < 0 ?>
<?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, ‘minYear’, xdoxslt:to_char(concat(substring(Created, 4,2), ‘.‘,substring(Created, 1, 2), ‘.‘,substring(Created, 7, 4)), ‘DD.MM.YYYY’))?><?end if?>
<?if: xdoxslt:date_diff(‘s’, xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, ‘maxYear’), xdoxslt:to_char(concat(substring(Created, 4,2), ‘.‘,substring(Created, 1, 2), ‘.‘,substring(Created, 7, 4)), ‘DD.MM.YYYY’), $_XDOLOCALE, $_XDOTIMEZONE) > 0?>
<?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, ‘maxYear’, xdoxslt:to_char(concat(substring(Created, 4,2), ‘.‘,substring(Created, 1, 2), ‘.‘,substring(Created, 7, 4)), ‘DD.MM.YYYY’))?><?end if?><?end for-each?>
So it gives me all the Service Request records in the time range. For example From Date: 31.01.2005 til To Date 01.02.2005.
It doesn't give me the To Date result unfortunately, it gives me the correct From Date, but as To Date the result is the same as From Date, what is false.
The results should be:
From Date: 31.01.2005
To Date: 01.02.2005
Can anybody help me? please?

Answer 1

I can but I was looking for a direct API use if possible here. Our library is so compilcated that I can't use the direct select statement.
Well thanks, I will be using the select max, min and further writing another API for my use.
