In my case, I'm not able to try to verify that part of your problem. I'm on an American English system.


All you have to do is go to International preference pane and set the
settings on the tabs. I'm on a US English system too but got bug reports
from Japan and now Sweden about date related errors. See the original post
for definitely replicable issues.


Just curious, why are you concerned about such ancient dates? I ask
because I've written some sophisticated calendar routines for date
manipulation and have never given any thought to dates prior to 1582.

What I'm concerned about is date object. I need reliable dummy dates to get
times, for instance, as in:


Set ds to "1/1/1000"
Set d to date ds
Set hour of ds to 7

Hour is not a property of a date AND 'ds' is not a date, its a string must be 'hours'

set hours of d to 14 --> works

Set minute of ds to 30

See hours: minute --> minutes ds --> d


Hello

when I run this one as is under Tiger 10.4.11,
I get this error message:
Impossible de régler hour of "1/1/1000" à 7. (can't set hour of "1/1/1000" to 7)
which seems normal as we can't set the hour of a string.
But a detail bothers me:


in the script editor, hour is displaid in green as variables names but if Y understand well it would be displaid in blue as every AppleScript's functions.

If I edit the line
set hour of ds to 7

to

set hour of d to 7,
which seems more logical, I get the error message:
Saturation de la pile.  (stack is full)

Here too. German 10.4.11
Seems to be a bug in AS. Trying to get a non-existent property should raise an error and not a stack overflow.

I get that on international (here in French) 10.4.11.

Kurt
