Hi Juan,

Well I'll be. 

It doesn't seem to have anything to do with the order of the date, it just
when you have the letter formatted date fields eg DDD/MM/YYYY or DMM/DD/YYYY
then the Shift-F9 Import Transaction Log does not correctly import the Date
field. 

Fortunately, the Export T-Log is created exactly the same as when you use
DDD/MM/YYYY or DDMY99/99/9999, so fortunately if you notice the problem you
can change the data field from DDD/MM/YYYY to DDMY99/99/9999 and the import
works fine again.

Everything seems fine for the Shift-F7 Built in Short Reports export and
CTRL-F5 import of WP format files, whichever date format you use.

I have never used the DDD/MM/YYYY format, they introduced it after I had
already gotten used to the DDMY99/99/9999 and fortuitously in this case it
is hard to teach old dogs new tricks; fortuitously because these days I only
generally interact with DP applications via T-Logs for web apps.

Thanks for bringing this to everyone's attention

Brian

Subject: [Dataperf] Bug in Export Import LOG


In Chile, (SudAmerica) we use the data field like DDMMYYYY.
When i define a field as DD/MM/YYYY in a panel they work fine
but when i export the data to a LOG for a big Clean the problem apears
The process o export work but when i import the data the error is generated
at the date field they no recognice the format DD/MM/YYYY.

The solution is change all date field as ddmyy99/99/9999 but there many
applications generated by this way
regards
Juan A. Salhus
