Kevin,

Well, of course since I sent that message, I have been trying to use the localization. (I was not using it when I got that error.) Now that I have added a messages.dbf and turned localization on, I just get the error "String was not recognized as a valid datetime." from the Mere Mortals error trapping. I checked the text value and it's just "".

In the meantime, I will see if I can build a simple screen to reproduce my previous problem. I suspect that it was trying to use the localization feature without it being turned on.

Thanks.

Linda
