>>You would probably be better off with DTOS(datefield)+CharacterField, if the purpose of the index is to order the records by date. It would also work well for lookup purposes, and is not affected by SET CENTURY ON/OFF.

ROFL!

After clicking, did you leave the mouse on SILVER long enough to read the "tool tip" message? Until I get the device driver translation problems solved, you will have to "dream" a little more.

BTW, what is the meaning of the "stad" part of your city name? I've seen something similar in many city names in the Caribbean, presumably due to Dutch influence.

Is it something like "land" or "place"? In English, "homestead" basically means "home-place" or "some land with a house".
