That's an interesting shortcut!

I would think that is time fluxing too, but testing shows me otherwise. 
Looks like that is the number of days since 01-01-1900.

Guess we only have to worry about SQL integer overflow in 5.8 million 
years. But the SQL Date field will over flow by year 10,000 anyway, so 
it's a moot point. :-)

Thanks for the info.
