Re: Date range

Don't care, I won't be around then.  But, did the Y2K thing, and made a 
ton of $$$ though.  It did wreak my liver. :-)

Re: Date range






Hey, by the time 2039 rolls around, someone will have figured out how to 
handle it.  Won't they??

What's odd though, is that if you look at a true *MDY date type the low
value is 01/01/40 and the hi value is 12/31/39.  We know this means 1940
through 2039, but it could really be confusing, and possibly disastrous, 

if

using *MDY dates as ranges.

Can someone tell me what the max range is for a MDY date? IE: 1900 - 

2020

Some of our programs still use six digit dates (Yes, I know we should 

be

converting them but that's not my decision and considering the number 

of

programs involved it would take a huge amount of time and resources) 

and

I

need to trap for max dates that are allowable in a *USA format but are
invalid for a *MDY
