Anne, I would be interested to learn what you consider to be the benefits of the 4 field convention. Frankly I cannot really see anything worthwhile for non-Americans.

Is that right ? This can only be done in a few reports though ? Can Legacy find a way to solve this problem so that non US users can benefit from the 4 place system ?
