Does one of these work for you:

x <- as.POSIXct('2010-03-18 12:15')
x
[1] "2010-03-18 12:15:00 EDT"
unclass(x)
[1] 1268928900
attr(,"tzone")
[1] ""
as.vector(x)
[1] 1268928900

I was guessing he wanted:

> x <- as.POSIXct('2010-03-18 12:15')
> as.Date(x)
[1] "2010-03-18"

Or perhaps:
> unclass(as.Date(x))
[1] 14686

Hard to know since he persists in not following the Posting Guide's request to provide examples and specifics for the desired result.

How do I get a number representing a date from a POSIXct i.e. removing the
