Hmm,
With effort – I am unable to re-create your problem as you describe. Using the Shell, nvReorg, or DOS I had no problems in anyplace with the Feb 29, 2004 date. Again, I would suggest checking the CMOS of your computer(s) for the correct current dates. Perhaps you need to re-install NV program files?

As for the Feb 28, 2004 – read the rules. It will never work. But the fact, that it doesn’t work – indicates the calendar functions are working correctly.

Oh-by-the-way the Shell “Make Books” does require
“Fiscal Year End Date for new books (DDMMYYYY): 29022004”

Regards
David
