Date editing format problem

I have noticed this on FWH807 .. can't really remember if this was a problem on FWH806 .. but I know it was a problem in earlier FWH versions ..

Consider a get with a date with the century on 07/17/2010

Click and hi-lite the last digit of the year ( the zero ) and change it to a 1.. the year changes to 0201 instead of 2011 ..

Can you verify this ??

Antonio,

Same problem here with SET DATE TO GERMAN

Still having this problem with 8.11 .. if you have a date get .. snip off the last digit like :

12/31/2008 .. snip off the 8 and replace it with a 9 .. and the date changes the year to 12/31/0209 .. SQL server is especially sensative to this where .dbf is not.

Hopeing you might take another look at this.

Thanks

Temporary workaround until fixed:

Convert date to text, edit as text, then postedit convert back to date .

Of course, this is only practical to use in a couple of places. If you have a lot of date edits, then maybe too many changes needed for the workaround.
