FilePro and dates

[Fairlight]

Already had to change it for one client.  Everything based on dates was
crashing the web-based stuff.  :b~~~~

Took 2min to fix, but there was no way around it.

> FP Tech sent out an email the other day about resetting the pfcmark variable to 30.
> 
> This is an import an change as as any program which uses dates will be affected by this variable.
> 
> One client called yesterday to complain that the selection program for his billing was not working correctly as items were billed that were not due.  Some were in April or May.
> 
> Also using / <enter> for today's date yielded an error message when pfcmark was set to 20, When set to 30 there was no problem.
> 
> I would strongly suggest that the Pfcmark variable be updated per the FP Tech email.
> 
> If you are getting calls about programs that have worked for years and most likely are date dependent, check the setting of PFCMARK first,  This could save you a lot of time.
