But John, they don't see " 00/00/00". They see " " (blanks, nada, nothing) so we don't have to explain anything. We also don't have to do anything. It just happens that way. If users start seeing "1/01/0001" popping up everywhere they'll kid the daylights out of us. If we have to start coding separate fields, doing IFGTs, and setting up work fields we won't have gained a single advantage. btw, I apologise to everyone for carrying this on. It really is tilting at windmills, and I should have just let it go. on 09/10/97 at 06:42 PM, John Carr <74711.77@compuserve.com> said: "Hey everybody, when you see a 00/00/00 in actual ship date, it means we don't know. Now you will see a 0001-01-01, it means we still don't know. -- ----------------------------------------------------------- boothm@earth.goddard.edu ----------------------------------------------------------- +--- | This is the Midrange System Mailing List! | To submit a new message, send your mail to "MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com". | To unsubscribe from this list send email to MAJORDOMO@midrange.com | and specify 'unsubscribe MIDRANGE-L' in the body of your message. | Questions should be directed to the list owner/operator: david@midrange.com +---
