Remarks

AdsGetJulian can be used to retrieve the Julian date representation of a date from date, short date, ModTime fields, and timestamp fields. A Julian date is a signed long integer representation of the number of days since January 1, 4713 B.C.

The pucFldName parameter can be passed as the field name itself or as the one-based integer field position. To pass an integer field position for the pucFldName parameter, use the ADSFIELD macro that is defined in ACE.H. For example, to specify the first field in the table, pass ADSFIELD(1) for the pucFldName parameter; to specify the second field in the table, pass ADSFIELD(2) for the pucFldName parameter; etc.
