Hello All, I'm wondering why DecodeDate is a procedure and DecodeDateFully a function in SysUtils... And there is no description of the returned Boolean. https://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/sysutils/decodedate.html https://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/sysutils/decodedatefully.html Cheers, Raoul
