Date::MSAccess is a Perl module to manage dates in MS Access format.

Synopsis

 use Date::MSAccess;

 my($obj) = Date::MSAccess -> new();
 my($date) = $obj -> decode_date(37988); # Returns '20040101'.
 my($now) = $obj -> todays_date(); # Returns 38006 on 20-Jan-2004.

Date::MSAccess is a pure Perl module.

It can convert a number which is an MS Access date into a string of the form 'YYYYMMDD'.

Also, it can return today's date in MS Access format.

Note: MS Access dates are based on 12 noon.

Note: MS Access dates can be fractional, eg 3008.25, but this module currently ignores such fractions.
