Hi Kevin,

Luckily for me I discovered this problem in a system that is still in the development stage so it was no problem to rectify the problem.

Regards,
Gavin.

>It just so happens that on July 14th,2003 (or maybe July 13th) SUBSTR(SYS(2015),3,10) started generating a 10 character string that began with the number 0. I have been using SUBSTR(SYS(2015),3,10) for years!!
