HPCALENDAR, HPFMTCALENDAR—Using the new 32-bit HPCALENDAR format.

I think it's the hpcalendar date you are looking for...see the url
http://docs.hp.com/en/30216-90269/ch09s03.html



flabel date: Is a three word timestamp field can be divided into two parts.
The first part is a 16 bit unsigned integer in CALENDAR format.
You can use that field as input to the FMTCALENDAR intrinsic to return
the date as an ascii string.

Hope this helps.
