Date Ceiling
Returns the ceiling of Date with respect to Date Part. In other words, the function determines which Date Part interval contains the Date, and returns a string representing the start value of the next Date Part interval.
Arguments
This function has the following arguments:
*Date: Text string specifying the date whose ceiling is to be returned. This must be either a formatted date/time string or a Java standard date/time argument in milliseconds from Jan 1, 1970.
*Date Part: Text string specifying the date part with respect to which the specified date's ceiling is to be returned. Specify s, m, h, d, w, M, q or y for seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, quarters, or years.
*Date Format: Text string specifying the format of the function result. Specify a pattern string suitable for use with the Java SimpleDateFormat class. For example, the format MMMM dd, yyyy hh:mm:ss a results in dates of the form exemplified by August 30, 2003 05:32:12 PM. If no Date Format is given, the string is returned in the form exemplified by 08/30/03 05:32 PM. Use q, qqq or qqqq for short, medium or long versions of quarter notation. For example, qqq-yyyy results in a string of the form exemplified by Qtr 1-2005.
The function returns a text string.
