Date Bug

Post by RollerBall » Tue Feb 13, 2007 11:26 am

I'm still with 6.39C - haven't found any need to change. Been using the date format with the month in letters, not figures eg 12 JAN 2007

Have found that FEB has gone silly - date on the screen and on printouts is coming out as

12 Enter discount 2007 instead of 12 FEB 2007

or

Enter discount 12, 2007 instead of FEB 12, 2007

However, all figures is fine eg 02-12-2007

Have checked the file with an editor and the next section after the months begins 'Enter discount blah blah' so there is obviously an internal referencing error.

I haven't looked at any more recent versions so I don't know if the error has been rectified - there's no real sweat as the all figures version is fine. It's just that over this side of the pond the month in letters version is preferred. ;)

Rollerball,

This was fixed a month or so ago and the notice of the fix is posted here http://keyhut.com/new_bug.htm#bug It is the 3rd one listed.

This is always a good place to check first before anyone posts a bug notice on the forum.

Okey dokey Dale. Thanks a lot. I'll bear that in mind for the future - not that there are that many bugs in DHPOS these days ;)

Rollerball,

Just wait until version 6.40 comes out with 2 new payment methods including gift cards. With all the new and changed code in that thing I am sure that the bug hunters out there will be rewarded.

Dale
