Solution has been found !
Daylight savings time and different machines set to differnt timezones.
The application is only concerned with dates and does not set time, but Ingres accounts for it and sets the time back or forward.
so date=date no longer works.

This is because of the 3 eastern states in Australia, only 2 have daylight savings time, which creates all sorts of problems, this was one of them.

Oh what fun :) I Hate timestamps, why can't there be a simple date ? And a time ?

The table I'm concernd with is a tickets file sorted by date. The dates should be d/m/y if the date format was reset somehow to m/d/y i'd expect errors, 28th day.

still, might be something like that.  See if you can get ingprenv
and "set" output from the problem machine, and one that works.

Unless a broken copy of the app is on the problem client,
it almost has to be environmental.
