Hi Dragan,

BTW, do you know, that millennium has 2 ll and 2 nn? It's a composition of two words: mille + thousand and anno - year.

Best wishes in the NEW MILLENNIUM!!!!!!!!!

>Just caught myself thinking who was to blame for having persuaded so many people that the new millenium begins with year 2000, and found that they must be the VB and C(++) people. Their arrays start with 0-th element, and that's how they count. I figure the vendors somehow manage to charge them 13 pieces a dozen, if they count all things like this. Though it was hard to explain that you can't start counting the third thousand from 2000 if you didn't start the first thousand from 0 (and there was no zeroeth thousand ever).

>So, to all VFPers and other people who still know how to count, happy new year, decade, millenium - and if I forgot any other of those decimal/metric things, feel free to add them yourselves :)

>Cheers :)
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
