Hi Joe As far as I understand Todd's message he wasn't trying to re-pack the date.

However, it won't store the correct year. If you try to store 2001 in a 7 bit bitfield, you'll get 1010001 (81) instead of 11111010001 (2001). So, I wouldn't think of that as "fine". __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Check out Yahoo! Shopping and Yahoo! Auctions for all of your unique holiday gifts!
