Roland, All,

We did a test on our systems here and have attached the TAF we used. On our Mac OS X server we have gotten results contrary to what is indicated in the documentation. If anyone else wants to run the file and report back their findings we can present a better case if it is indeed a bug or simply a discrepancy with the documentation.

More explanation of the differences is contained in the TAF results.

Jason

by this, a date of 03, should correctly resolve to 2003, right?

Before you pass judgement, check to see what your DATEFORMAT and/or
TIMESTAMPFORMAT is set to.

From the manual:
Note: If a date format string contains %Y, but the value for the year is
two-digit, the following centuries are assumed, if appropriate:

Value Century
00-36
 2000s

37-99
 1900s


That is, a two-digit year of 99 is evaluated as 1999, and a two-digit year
of 00 is evaluated as 2000.

So, if your date format string contains a %y, 19XX is probably assumed.
