Why would a command such as:
? ctod("10/13/15")
give me the following result?
10/13/2115
In other words, next century instead of the current century.
I am trying to import data from a text file, and thought ctod() would be a quick solution. Actually the dates seem to include a century, so the question might be irrelevant for this particular task, but I was still curious what I did wrong.
Here are some relevant settings (Visual FoxPro 9):
set("date") = "AMERICAN"
set("century") = "ON"
set("century", 1) = 20
set("century", 2) = 65
set("century", 3) = 2029 && what the heck does this do?
Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
