I think I may have found it in a parameters file 100.23 parameter definitions.
There are parameters like ORPF WORK COPY HEADER and ORPF CHART COPY HEADER
and the same for FOOTER, etc., and once I found them in this definition file,
there was a format for them and some entries, one of which ,
Why are two of the date/time functions in Fileman, and
the rest in Kernel? And why is Kernel missing
external-to-internal conversion?
Fileman
---
^%DT -- external to internal conversion
DD^%DT -- Internal to external conversion
Kernel
--
$$FMTE^XLFDT -- Internal to external conversion
Date/Time functions began their life in Fileman and migrated somewhat to
Kernel.

Yes it does. Simple set X equal to the external date and call %DT the
internal value will be returned in Y. Like this;
S X=10/1/05 D ^%DT
ZW
%DT=
X=10/1/05
Y=3051001

conversion.
So how do I do that??
Thanks

The problem appears to be with your data, not with FileMan.
Look at the ENTERED BY field in your record 4299. If it were reflecting a
true pointer value, then your inquiry should reflect the full name
TOPPENBERG,KEVIN S (like the full name THWING, PHILIP T is displayed for
the AUTHOR/DICTATOR
