Jennifer,
What are your date format and sequence? To see, type SHOW DATE at an R>
prompt.
My first guess would be that some dates have been saved in the wrong
century, that you are viewing dates with just 2 digits showing for the
year, and that the wrong century dates appear to be out of order.
If that is the problem, people here can show you how to update all dates
that are wrong.

Subject: Illegal Column Specification
Hello,
I am trying to create a report where the data is being filtered with the
following code:
PRINT hpreport WHERE discharge IS NULL +
AND company <> '003' +
AND nexthp < .vtoday +
OR nexthp BETWEEN .vtoday AND (.vtoday + 7) +
ORDER BY room ASC, nexthp ASC +
However the order by does not work. I get an order by room number, but
then not by the nexthp which is a date field. I thought that I should
put a 'group by' in since I need to basically group by building a floor,
and then show the dates in ascending order on each building/floor.
Every time I try to put a group by clause in here it gives mt the
illegal column specification error. What am I doing wrong here? I'm
sure I am overlooking something really simple. J
Thank you,
Jennifer Roberts
