Re: y2038 -- is 4D ready?
4D would support 64bit integer by then. If not, sequence number (or auto-increment) would be the first one to get in trouble.

Re: y2038 -- is 4D ready?
I changed my system date to 1/1/2039 and started testing dates. An android walked into my office and told me to cut it out.

Yes, 4D dates are good valid from 1/1/100 to 12/31/32,767 http://doc.4d.com/4Dv15/4D/15.4/Data-Types.300-3273704.en.html Neil -- Privacy Disclaimer: This message contains confidential information and is intended only for the named addressee.
