    Hi SeGra ,
    I already follow this blog. In this blog it will show the text data type count.
    & I want to find unique date.
    Is any other way to do this.

    To do this, you can start by filtering the records based on your date.. once you have filtered the records, you can compare them to another set of records and find the ones that do not match.. 
                if YourTableBuffer.FindSet() then
            repeat begin
                YourTableBufferTwo.SetFilter(Date,'<>%1', YourTableBuffer.Date);
                if (YourTableBufferTwo.FindSet())
                then begin
                    ListOfUnMatchedRecords.Add(YourTableBufferTwo.ID);
                    count := count+1
                end;
                until YourTableBufferTwo.Next() = 0;
            end;
            until YourTableBuffer.Next() = 0;
    This is the example code for you.. 
    Regards
