Leap Year Bug

FYI:

When submitting a job to DAS (using V4.16) or BCA (using V5.01) through the Automation Interface, when the operating system’s date is 29 Feb, the following error message is received: “Expiration date cannot be prior to the start date (invalid arguments)”.

Documents submitted through the BO User module seem to be fine.

Setting the system’s date to either 28 Feb or 01 Mar bypasses the problem.

Note that this is not specifically a Y2K problem - It fails on 1996, 2000 and 2004

Thank you Kevin. I would have spent all day scratching my head on this one. I changed the system date and my VB interface worked just fine. Simon
