How the product handles dates:
The Organize Pictures task has a description entry field for entering dates. The user is allowed to type in a 2-digit year or a 4 digit year. If the year is 2 digit, Picture It! 2.0 displays/stores dates from 1930 to 2029. If the year is 4 digit, the product will display/store that year.
The Organize It! task also has a FIND utility. The Find feature also has a search by date field. This field also accepts 4 digit or 2 digit date entry. This feature matches the same behavior as that found in the Organize Pictures description utility.
Note: On the Korean version the date fields have been removed. The user will not have the ability to type in dates in the Organize Pictures task.
In the Calendar Task the calendar only allows four digit entry of dates. It accepts values between 1800 and 2200. The year 2000 leap year displays correctly.
When displaying dates the application uses system settings in the Control Panel defined by the user.
Two-digit shortcut handling:
If the string is entered as 03/10/00, it is then converted into a four digit date format using the VarDateFromString() function in OLEAUT32.dll of the operating system. OLEAUT32.dll performs the conversion properly if the version of OLEAUT32.dll is greater than or equal to 2.20.4094. On the retail release of Windows 95, OLEAUT32.dll is an earlier version and does not perform the four digit date conversion correctly. It coverts the string to March 10, 1900. OSR2 and greater versions of Windows 95 perform the conversion to four digit date format properly. It converts to March 10, 2000. For more information see the Windows 95 Product Guide.
Recommendations to meet compliance:
Two-digit shortcut handling:
Microsoft Picture It 2.0's interpretation of dates depends on the version OLEAUT32.DLL in the system folder.
A) If your OLEAUT32.DLL has a version of 2.20.4049 or greater, Picture It 2.0 interprets dates entered with an abbreviated year format, such as mm/dd/yy, to mean the 21st century. Office97 and Windows NT 4.0 install a version of OLEAUT32.DLL that follows these rules.
1/1/00 through 12/31/29 are interpreted as 1/1/2000 through 12/31/2029
1/1/30 through 12/31/99 are interpreted as 1/1/1930 through 12/31/1999
B) If your version of OLEAUT32.DLL is less than 2.20.4049, Picture It 2.0 interprets dates entered with an abbreviated year format to mean the current century in the following way. Windows 95 installs a version of OLEAUT32.DLL that follows these rules.
If the current century is the 20th:
1/1/00 through 12/31/99 are interpreted as 1/1/1900 through 12/31/1999
If the current century is the 21st:
1/1/00 through 12/31/99 are interpreted as 1/1/2000 through 12/31/2099
