Re: dbdatecrack producing erroneous results

You should try the --enable-msdblib option.

I would very much want to be able to use tds_datecrack as it is obviously much faster but like I said, it puzzled me how in my case it would get wrong results otherwise, I wouldn't go through the pains of creating yet another function that does the same thing, only slower.

I am pretty sure that I can overcome any problems specific to my local configuration as long as there is no coding issue that needs to be addressed. I'll keep you posted of my findings but it is comforting to know that the code is sound as it is.
