Hi  Ibendlin,

Thanks for your quick response. I like very straight forward response but the  change you are asking seems a bit broad, dont you think?! Im concerned doing so might cause other issues specially when Im using auto generated Date\Time table. 

 

Can you please provide some conectext on this and why do I need to do this now vs not before?

 

Where do I disable this feature?

 

Thanks

    Auto Date/Time is generally more harmful than helpful as it can result in gigantic extra storage requirements, especially if you have unclean dates like "12/31/9999".  

     

    Use a proper calendar table and let the visuals take care of the hierarchies.

     

    You disable it in the "Options and Settings"  dialog.
