Usage Import Changes Dates for 12-31-2000 When You Use Microsoft Access Database (290548)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Site Server 3.0
This article was previously published under Q290548

SYMPTOMS

When you try to import a log with data from December 31, 2000, the date changes to January 1, 2001. This problem only occurs when you configure Site Server to use an Microsoft Access database.

CAUSE

Usage Import uses Julian dates. This algorithm breaks for December 31, 2000.

WORKAROUND

If you import the data into a SQL Server database everything works correctly. If this is not possible, you can manually modify the database in Microsoft Access after the import.
