   "Invalid handle to the function"

   Greetings all,   
      
   I'm sort of posting this for my own future reference, but hopefully it'll   
   help others.   
      
   I was testing my app using Australian dates, instead of US dates.  When opening   
   a form, I got a message 'invalid handle to function' with no further   
   explanation.   
    After checking all of my code, I couldn't figure this out.   
      
   The problem was that I had used SetRange() on the form's master table for   
   a given date range, then saved the form.  This was stored in US date format   
   (ie 12/24/2007).  When Pdox tried to open the form, it didn't know how to   
   handle this date in Aussie format (no month 24).   
      
   HTH,   
   Jim Moseley
