Date sorting

I'm a long time Clarion user trying out the demo version of WinDev7.5. I
like it a lot. The IDE seems very powerful. It will take a while to just
explore it all.

Just the easy debugging which the interpreter makes possible is a huge
advantage to me.

When I get my feet more on the ground I'm looking forward to trying to
create a new RAD window type: form with lookup combo (rather than the VCR
buttons), which I think I would use a lot.

One thing that's disappointing is the handling of dates. It seems you have
to convert to integer to manipulate days, other than the DateDifference
function. But that's a fairly small inconvenience. What seems more serious
is that I'm finding that a file based table seems to be sorting on the
displayed string value (eg: "MMDDYY") instead of the underlying YYYYMMDD. Is
this correct or am I doing something wrong? Shouldn't a table be able to
display dates in any format and sort them correctly?

Looking at the same data in WDMap the dates look screwey. They are displayed
in xx/xx/xxxx format, but it looks like the first two x's are the year - 03
or 04. So I'm hoping that I've just corrupted these dates somehow. Are there
things you have to avoid in working with dates to avoid such corruption?

Thanks,

Jack Partridge
