Maybe that is your problem! It could be FileGateway is correctly converting the data and you setting is unconverting it. What is your DATE FOR seting?

When I import this table with the File Gateway, I get a format MM/DD/YYYY in the Rbase table for that same column, meaning that all dates higher than de 12th of a month are not imported as Rbase thinks it is month 13 where it should read day 13. What am I overlooking here ? Luc D.
