Help With Dbase Iv

[SAMUEL2904]

Hi, Im using by first time DBase IV and if I use the next command..:

replace ultpagod with space(7) all

I will able to replace everything because variable ultpagod is alfanumeric, if instead i use...:

replace ultpagom with 0 all

I can be able to put in 0 everything on that variable because is numeric one, but

HOW CAN I ERASE ALL THE INFORMATION ON A DATE VARIABLE?

Could somebody help me?

[Ted Striker]

replace ultadv with "" all

or

replace ultadv with '' all

[SAMUEL2904]

Data type mismatch

[Ted Striker]

Do you know of any online manuals you could point me to? I could take a look and see if I could help.

Unfortunatley I haven't used dBase since 1994.

Perhaps if you just create an empty date variable, and assign its value to the other one.

[SAMUEL2904]

The answer was

replace ultadv with ctod(" / / ") all

[Asher]

Of course.
