Hello Marko,

Help Browser:

"FromDate[date] converts a date of the form
y, m, d, h, m, s
to an absolute number of seconds since the beginning of January 1, 1900. "

Your "ogrenze" (ogrenze = FromDate[{2000, 30, 10, 23, 59, 59}])
set the tenth day of the 30th month - which is outside MATHEMATICA'S
calendar definition.

Best regards,
Matthias Bode.

Hi!

Here is something mysterious:

ogrenze = FromDate[{2000, 30, 10, 23, 59, 59}]
--> 3233692799

ToDate[ogrenze]
-->{2002, 6, 21, 23, 59, 59}

hm, 2002=2000 ...??? 
Is this only on my computer? Why? 
Version Number: 4.1.2.0
Platform: Windows

Hmm, I'm thankful for any suggestions to deal with this.
