Status: Verified
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress/400 DataServer
SYMPTOM(s):
Client displays "question marks" within the date fields
The file field descriptions through the data dictionary, shows a date format of 99/99/99. (This is the default format of the progress client.)
Data stored on the AS/400 has dates outside the -yy setting.
FIX:
If dates have years outside the -yy setting then in order for the field to be correctly displayed on the client, the format must be changed to 99/99/9999 or 9999/99/99 in either the data dictionary or within the procedure. This will display the 4 digit year correctly.
