Datestamp on Reports

[Mike or Penny Novack]

I perhaps was being influenced by MY particular background in large 
scale financial systems.

That's why I interpreted "date stamp for a run" to be somewhat arbitrary 
relative to some REAL TIME date stamp. Thus we had the "date run" 
assigned to all files created during the run for a single fiscal date 
the same whether or not the run of that program took place before or 
after midnight (systems processing a days activity took place from the 
close of business till done some time before the morning of the next day 
when brought up again to enter that day's activity). Or even at some 
later date if a job had to be rerun to recreate some output (files would 
be recreated with the ASSIGNED date of that run, not the date the rerun 
took place).

Understand what was being prevented? If a job ran after midnight on 
night and before midnight the next night and "real time" date stamps 
were used there would be output files from different runs with the SAME 
date stamp.
