Date function in jsl.

I have a table with that has time stamp for all the rows.

But I need only last 7 days data. Is there an easy way to delete all data that is past last 7 days.

 

New to jsl and any inputs will be helpful.

Re: Date function in jsl.

Here is a complete script that should show you a result

Names Default to Here( 1 );
dt = New Table( "test",
	add rows( 100 ),
	New Column( "start date",
		formula( Random Uniform( Today() - In Days( 12 ), Today() ) ),
		Format( "m/d/y", 10 )
	)
);
dt:start date << delete formula;


New Column( "START_SHORT_DATE",
	Formula( :start date - Time Of Day( :start date ) ),
	Format( "m/d/y", 10 ),

);
New Column( "Todays Date",
	Formula( Today() - Time Of Day( Today() ) ),
	Format( "m/d/y", 10 )
);
New Column( "Ref Date",
	Formula( Today() - In Days( 7 ) ),
	Format( "m/d/y", 10 ), 

);

Current Data Table() << select where( :Ref Date < :START_SHORT_DATE );
