In the absence of any of the information requested in the posting guide,
all we can say is that this works for other people (e.g. on both Mac OS X
and Fedora 8 for me).
Apart from the usual info, we would need to know your timezone.

Hi. I'm trying to take the difference in days between two times. Can
you point out what's wrong, or suggest a different function? When I
try the following code, The following code works fine:
a <- strptime(1911100807,format="%Y%m%d%H",tz="GMT")
b <- strptime(1911102718,format="%Y%m%d%H",tz="GMT")
x <- difftime(b, a, units="days")
x
But when I change the year, the following code returns 'NA' for the
time between a and b. Thanks.
a <- strptime(1999100807,format="%Y%m%d%H",tz="GMT")
b <- strptime(1999102718,format="%Y%m%d%H",tz="GMT")
x <- difftime(b, a, units="days")
x
