Progress 9.1C, Windows 2000, error 80:
** The month of a date must be from 1 to 12. (80)
Month values must be from 1 (JANUARY) to 12 (DECEMBER).

Hello,
on my pc i get the message above mentioned by comparing some dates with 'today'.
if i view today it looks like '01.20.2005'; so in 'MM.DD.YYYY'. On other PC'S i do not have the problem.
How can i solve this problem?
I don't know why this Computer with Windows 2000 shows 'toay' in this way.
Progress session date format is: dmy.

Thanks for help.

You can set or change the default value of the -d parameter in yourstartup.pf file (located in your Progress installation directory) todmy. That way you will not have to keep changing it every time youstart a Progress session.

hmmm for some reason my previous post misses some spaces which I amsureI did type (maybe the forum does not like FireFox browsers??).

Anyway, the -d parameter can be set to dmy in the startup.pf file
