Re: Exporting to dbf

I have just exported a report to a dbf file. This changed all the dates, except years, to numbers bearing no resemblance to the original data. However when I exported to Excel spreadsheet the dates were kept in correct format.

I was also going to export to Dmap, which is till in Recorder help, and it took a lot of searching to find this does not work. Would be really helpful if you could remove from the 'help'.

Thanks

Janet

Re: Exporting to dbf

Hi Janet,

Thanks for pointing this potential problem out - I will investigate when I get the chance and put it on the list to fix 9(funding provided). We are investigating how much it might cost to fix the DMap exporter - hence the information remains in the help. Is retaining a working Dmap exporter something that would be of use to many people?

Cheers,
Lynn
