>>Hi everyone. I am sorry if this question has been addressed multiple times, but I couldn't find any references. All I want to do is simply obtain an average of a large set of date fields. Thanks for your help!

To be more precise, you can use something like

CALC AVG(VAL(SYS(11,mydateField))) to nDateNumber
myAvgDate = CTOD(SYS(10,nDateNumber))

To get the average date look real there should not be records with empty dates.
