subject: Patch for s`87 somewhere

JV ->Set epoch does not work in S'87 and the program needs to be kept
   ->runnin' while we're writing it in CAVO. The program calculates
   ->datefields in order to set an ending date for a contract. Now
   ->contracts longer than 4 years get ***** up !
Have you checked to see if the SET CENTURY ON command is implemented in
S'87? I don't have my book on it anymore. You may have to rewrite some
screen and picture clause stuff if it is, but the only other option is
to recompile in Clipper 5.
I know several people on CompuServe have reported trying to write their
own function, but no one has reported success.
And I understand your frustration, but please try express it a bit
differently next time. There are a lot of folks here who would be very
glad to help you, but might not respond if offended by your
descriptive phrases. Like me.
Take care,
Raymond Pesek
