potential bug fix

"This is a problem with the format of the date, the Windows 9x kernel reports the system date as MM/DD/YY where as the NT kernel reports the system date as MM/DD/YYYY (dates may be in a different format for different systems but always have the same number of digits). I am currently working on ways to solve this problem but as of yet there is not a Windows 9x version available."

Cant you just detect the operating system and run the function using different date formats as a result? I mean even if u just copied and pasted the code under some form of if statement! :blink:

just gonna go read more about how ur developing it, but it seems simple to me..

heh, well I closed this project quite some time ago (I didnt even notice this thread was posted). I just dont have the time to take care of it anymore. Thanks for the post but I think if I remember right the problem was that it was more than just NT vs. 9x it was actually a problem with regional settings as well as the differences for NT and 9x. If it were merely 9x vs NT I would just release a different version for for 9x. I may return to the project at a later date but if I did I would rewrite in in C++ rather than resume it as a VB application.
