Author Clipper NTX date sorting problem

Since January 2005 my ntx files that are sorting on date fields are
treating dates in 2005 as a lower order than dates in 2004. Any
calculations done on these date fields are correct. It is just in
sorting them that there is a problem. Can anyone give me a clue as to
what my problem might be?
Thanks!

I am hobbyist/tinkerer when it comes to Clipper not an expert. Your
question about the DtoS() function seems to have solved my problem. I
was using the DtoC() function.

Thank-you very much for your help.

You might check the "century" setting to confirm the dates are 2005 and not
1905.
