A different resource than a printed book, but one I find indispensable, is an 
R:Docs subscription. A bit more than a book, but it’s right there when you need 
it and you can cut and paste the code running it side by side with R:Base. The 
on line resources listed at the bottom of the post here, in particular Razzak/s 
FTE series is invaluable as well.

Please add me to where I can buy an R:Base book newer than my R:Base 4.0 and 
4.5 manuals.  I have R:Base Extreme 9.5 (32) and the changes are too much to 
make those manuals helpful anymore.  I haven’t had much luck at all using the 
software’s Help function, so this Forum has made my R:Base use so much easier 
and better.  And having a “How-To” manual that works for my R:Base would be 
wonderful!

Hi guys, what book is this, I am looking for a good SQL reference book since 
all of my coding goes back to the Rbase for Dos days!

No problem Bill.  I still refer to your and David’s SQL book almost monthly.

So sorry. I jumped in to the middle of the conversation, and missed the main 
details.

Bill:  She's saying that NULL date values are displaying like that in a form.

Claudine:  does the database see them as null?  If you did a select where 
datecol is null, do they show up?

Claudine,

If you can write a WHERE clause that finds all the bad dates, you should be 
able to write an UPDATE that fixes them.

Are all the wrong dates off by exactly a century? If not, you will have to make 
your WHERE clause more complicated, and do this more than once.

SELECT datecolumn FROM tablename WHERE datecolumn <= '01/01/1900'

UPDATE tablename SET datecolumn = +
 (RDATE(imon(datecolumn), iday(datecolumn), (iyr4(datecolumn) + 100 )) +
WHERE datecolumn <= '01/01/1900'

Hello all,

I’m on latest release.  Some null values in a date field on a form are coming 
up 12/30/99, fully extended to 12/30/1899!  There are no values in that field 
in the table and the field correctly takes whatever date is inserted and saves 
it to the table.

I switched from 2-digit year to 4-digit year a few months ago and wonder if 
that’s when this started.  I reloaded the database, ran it through R:Scope and 
all is sound.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

TIA,

Claudine
