Hi, OK, you're all probably sick of this thread by now.
However, I have written up a proposed P5EE document which gives advice on Date/Time processing. http://www.officevision.com/pub/p5ee/software/htdocs/P5EEx/Blue/datetime.html If anyone wants to correct anything in it, that's fine. However, if you want to wait until later, when I put a lot of docs up for a vote, feel free to wait. I'm done with this thread for now.
