I have spent three >month building an app for scheduling TV-programs and contracts. Now when I started compiling to distribute the app in the company it's made for it just won't work. I am working in Sweden wich makes me want to use dateformat ANSI or YMD or even better short wich is picked from the system. I am also using DATETIME() to calculate durations and seek for collisions in the schedual. To make neet input screens I have choosen to split the vital fields for date and time into four fields, s_date (date) for start date, start (char 4)for start time, e_date (date) for end date and end (char 4) for end time. To calculate duration i concatenate date and time to a datetime variable whith CTOT(DTOC(s_date)+" "+SUBSTR(start,1,2)+":"+SUBSTR(start,3,2)), and the same for end time. This works fine in the developing environment. All my functions work out just fine. At compilationtime everything goes bananas and I loose the century at input in all my datecontrols and even worse, when I extract the timeportion from a datetimevariable, it picks the wrong positions according to the fact that it is no longer a 24-hour format, but 12-hour.
Have someone bumped into problems like this? What to do?
