prordbd() - Read DATE Field

The prordbd() function reads the value of a DATE field in a shared buffer.

On successful completion, prordbd() returns 0; otherwise, it returns a non-zero value:

SYNTAX

int 
prordbd ( pbufnam, fhandle, index, pyear, pmonth, pday,
         punknown )
  char *pbufnam;
  int   fhandle;
  int   index;
  int  *pyear;
  int  *pmonth;
  int  *pday;
  int  *punknown; 

pbufnam

This input parameter points to the name of the specified shared buffer.

fhandle

This input parameter is the field handle that profldix() returns for the specified field.

index

This output parameter points to an integer where prordbd() returns the value of year.

pmonth

This output parameter points to an integer where prordbd() returns the value of month.
