Which versions does this problem apply to? On a slightly different angle: another thing which causes trouble is all-digit years when some users are from the USA and others are from Europe or any users are not sure or the software originates in the USA and is used in Europe, etc.... What date is 10-11-1998? I always use 10 Nov 1998. > > -- > Jonathan Leffler (jleffler@informix.com, jleffler@earthlink.net) > Guardian of DBD::Informix v0.60 -- see http://www.perl.com/CPAN > #include <disclaimer.h> -- Peter Lancashire Information Systems Specialist, Bayer plc Eastern Way, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, IP32 7AH, UK Tel: +44-1635-562258, Fax: +44-1635-562281 -- If all else fails, read the instructions and the release notes.
