How the product handles dates:
Input: Microsoft Call Manager does not allow date input.
Storage:
Phone call information, including date and duration, are stored in the call log. All the call log data resides in the file MSP_CLOG.DAT in the Microsoft Phone directory. The date/time is stored as a FILETIME, which is a 64-bit value indicating the number of 100-nanosecond intervals since January 1, 1601.
Voice messages left in the Answering System are stored in the Outlook Express mail store.
Computation:
The duration of messages left in the Answering System are computed and stored as a property of the message placed in the Outlook Express mail store.
The duration of calls stored in the Call Log is computed as a DWORD value.
When retrieving messages remotely via the Answering System the age of the message is computed as well as the day of the week the message was left.
Notification of new messages requires the scheduled date/time of the notification to be computed using the user chosen interval.
Compressing the Outlook Express mail store is a scheduled activity, which requires date calculations to determine the start time.
Display:
Microsoft Call Manager utilizes the Regional Settings in Control Panel for date/time format display.
The date of messages is read aloud by TTS (Text-to-Speech) synthesis when retrieving messages remotely.
Transfer:
Call log entries, which include the date, can be copied from the History window to the Windows Clipboard.
Two-digit shortcut handling:
Two digit-shortcut dates are not used in Microsoft Call Manager, except for display as indicated by the Regional Date/Time display format in the Control Panel. (Also see Common date usage errors below)
Common date usage errors:
Call log entries copied onto the Windows Clipboard are formatted as plain text (clipboard format CF_TEXT). The date/time portion of the call log entry will be formatted as prescribed by the Regional Settings for date/time format in the Control Panel. If the date is formatted using two-digit year then the paste target application must correctly deal with two digit-shortcut dates. To alter this behavior, change the system short date format to one which uses four digit year (i.e. mm/dd/yyyy).
Testing guidelines and recommendations:
In general, avoid testing in a production environment or with non-duplicated production files because one cannot predict side effects with other products.
