>VFP can handle dates from {^0001/01/01} to {^9999/12/31}. In case of SET DATE SHORT/LONG VFP relies on the Windows API calls to work with dates and Windows doesn't allow dates before {^1600/01/01}
I see. I thought it was VFP that didn't handle dates before 1601.
Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
