Allo!
RB> Good evening, Gilles
RB> Back on the 26th of October you were asking:
RB> GB\ Just to ask if you are YEAR 2000 ready. I know FP
RB> was 2000 ready, but
RB> \ the application you develop are?
RB> Yes, thankfully FoxPro is ready for the next millenium. In the
It's what I assume until yesterday. I do some Y2K check on a flat
file. Only the basic file with some date field and some index
in that date field.
I check what append when you enter 00/12/12 as the date. And
FoxPro assume it's 1900/12/12, not 2000/12/12. And the result was
a mix up of the index file, so I have to correct it. Lucky it's only
a 500 records file, I don't lost anything.
In conclusion I have to re-write ALL application already done.
If FoxPro was really a true Y2K ready package, it's assume
2000 when you write 00 in a 2 digits date field.
I do the check in 2.6x DOS of FoxPro. Anyone can check if the
same Y2K bug with the lastest version?
