Good morning folks,

I created (and compiled) a virtual field that does the following:

:AE DICT TX.ARCHV R90.TXA.SORTED.REUNION                                        
Top of "R90.TXA.SORTED.REUNION" in "DICT TX.ARCHV", 9 lines, 800 characters.    
001: I 03 Apr 2006  09:16am  Datatel                                            
002: SUBR("S.SUBSTRINGS",TRANS("PERSON",TXA.DONOR.ID,"REUNION.CLASS","X"),3,2); 
SUBR("X.SORT.LIST", at 1,'DL'); IF @2 THEN SUBR("-CATS",REUSE("~"), at 2) ELSE ''; CONVERT("~","'", at 3); TRANS("PERSON",TXA.DONOR.ID,"FIRST.NAME","X"); TRANS("PERSON",TXA.DONOR.ID,"MAIDEN.LAST.NAME","X");
TRANS("PERSON",TXA.DONOR.ID,"LAST.NAME","X"); TRIM(@5:" ":@6:" ":@7):" ":@4                                               
003:                                                                            
004: Sorted Reunion                                                             
005: 60L                                                                        
006: S                                                                          
007:                                                                           

The subroutine called X.SORT.LIST just takes a MV'd list and sorts it according to the 'DL' flag that I pass in. 

The following code segment in DOWNLOAD squawks at me:

017: DOWNLOAD TX.ARCHV R90.TXA.SORTED.REUNION HEADING FIELD.NAMES FORMAT QUOTE FILE _HOLD_ ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS OVERWRITING

The strange item is .... if I change my dates to be closer together I get the following error:
