I installed INFORMIX-ESQL/C 5.00.UC2, INFORMIX-4GL 4.10.UD3 INOFRMIX-SE 5.00.UC3 on AIX and complied our applications (in C) for some of our clients. We use infomix function, rdefmtdate, to convert Date string, rdefmtdate(&ldate, "mm-dd-yyyy", str_date); I have input str_date = 07-11-1997, and informix return ldate = 2104819714. I don't have much information about this informix version. I wonder if there are people using similar version of Informix. Please tell me if this version support 4 digit year. If the answer is yes, why I got this crazy return value? ps. I set the enviornment variable: DBDATE=MDY4-. Thanks!
