I have a field on user defined table called "Date of Event"

I want to filter out all the events that have passed (i.e. all the events from before "Today")

I can't figure out the filter statement.

[Date of Event]<#4/5/2009# works, for example... but obviously I don't want to update the filter every day.

Is there a way to filter

[Date of Event]<Today -- can't seem to find a statement that works.

??

with help from Stefan Cullmann, i was able to solve that like this:

  • first define a new calculated column in UDT with the name "IsInFuture". The calculation of this column is: 
    (Datum_udt_ticks +864000000000 ) >[ticks:today]
  • Next, in the XSL template, you can filter on the value of the IsInFuture column. ON www.sdn.nl we did that like this:
      <xsl:template match="/udt:UserDefinedTable">
        <xsl:variable name="currentData" select="udt:Data[udt:IsInFuture='true']" />
        <table class="FrontAgendaTable">
          <xsl:apply-templates select="$currentData" mode="list">
            <xsl:sort select="*[name()=$orderBy]" order="{$orderDirection}" data-type="{$orderType}" />
          </xsl:apply-templates>
        </table>
      </xsl:template>

Thanks for reply, Erik

I tried your suggestions. The calculated column does not work. It says it can't convert date to Int32, and a slew of other errors with different data types.  It also can't use + sign or > sign in the expression.

I tried with data type as Text, Integer, Decimel, Date and Time, True/False... none worked.

 

Here's what I thought should work

([Date of Event] + 864000000000)>[ticks:today]

 

I guess I need to know how to convert [Date of Event] column into an integer...

 you need to convert the date to ticks, please check out the UDT user manual for details.

Much easier than I thought. Thanks Sebastian.

I didn't really understand how to use Ticks till now.

The filter statement I used was:

([Date of Event_UDT_Ticks]+864000000000)>[ticks:today]

I did not even need to make a hidden column.
