How to add 'd' to get the correct julian conversion ? [message #33742] Thu, 23 January 2003 06:47

How can I add the NEEDED d to get this:

2452662.305203d

out of this:
maxtime = jul2cal((data(0,maxgust_time)), /TO_STRING, /MDY)

In my program (data(0,maxgust_time)) fetches 2452662.305203 out of the
array, but if I don't add the d to the julian date it calculates the
wrong time in the above statement.

I've tried

maxtime = jul2cal((data(0,maxgust_time))d, /TO_STRING, /MDY)

but that's not accepted.
