Year function

Returns the year, as a 4-digit integer, for a date/time argument.

Syntax

Year ( dateExpr )

Elements

dateExpr

Any of the following kinds of expressions:

• A valid date/time string of String or Variant data type.

For Notes or Domino, LotusScript interprets a 2-digit designation of a year in a date/time string so that 50 through 99 represent the years 1950 through 1999 and 00 through 49 represent the years 2000 through 2049.

For SmartSuite, LotusScript interprets the years differently. For more information, see the Year 2000 item on the Help menu of each SmartSuite product.

• A numeric expression whose value is a Variant of DataType 7 (Date/Time).
• A number within the valid date range: -657434, representing Jan 1, 100 AD, to 2958465, representing Dec 31, 9999 AD.
• NULL.

Return value

Year returns an integer between 100 and 9999.

The data type of the return value is a Variant of DataType 2 (Integer).

Year(NULL) returns NULL.
