Be careful with Date('C').  It doesn't really give you the number of 
days in the current century (as it was originally documented).  It 
returns the number of days since the beginning of the most recent year 
ending in '00', e.g. '2000'.

If you are doing any sort of arithmetic with dates, your best bet is 
Date('Basedate'), especially if your dates might span a century
boundary.
