How do I compare two dates in Lingo? To be specific, I want to know if today's date is after some fixed date. I know I can create the fixed date by using:
date("20090101")
and I can get the current date using:
_system.date()
but I can't seem to directly compare the two. Do I have to parse the _system.date() to determine if it's after my fixed date? I tried:
if(_system.date() > date("20090101") then
--do something
end if
but that doesn't seem to work. Any ideas?
