>>Hi Jim,

>>As you are an expert on FoxPro, how does one avoid the ambiguity problem of date formats using VFP3?
>>
>>To be able to use different values for SET DATE we have been looking at saving dates in Julian Date format when saving dates to character fields, but we need some other way to do it. Do you have any suggestion??

>Not for VFP3. You have to code for the problem. In 5.0 and up we have the strict date format but that format was not in VFP3.

Do you have any suggestion on the best way to go about programming for the problem??
