Hello Yves, I don't know if this is the smartest way, but this should do it: on mouseUp put "dinsdag, 9 juli 2002" into DateA convert DateA from system long date to seconds put "7/17/02" into DateB convert DateB from short date to seconds put DateA - DateB into diff divide diff by 86400 -- No of seconds in 1 day if char 1 of diff = "-" then delete char 1 of diff put diff end mouseUp and the message box shows the date of 10 days ago in French (or Dutch, or whatever language you are using). As long as RR can understand the date format provided, and you specify which format it is, there shouldn't be a problem. The only thing is if the data provided is in languages other then the system language of the user and English, in other words: on my system, I can only interpret Dutch or English dates; not Frech or German. Maybe a nice feature request to add a few more languages than English...
