   Fair questions. I am a minimalist, so the code is trivial. Either of the   
   following lines produce that identical error.   
      
   view(date("07/01/2008"))   
      
   msgInfo("", date("07/01/2008"))   
      
   I could reproduce the entire script here, but that is not the issue. String   
   to date conversion within Paradox only is not working on this one computer.   
   It is working fine on all other computers that we access.
