Geiger [3] => Geiger [4] => Dr. [5] => (618)271-7061 Home [6] => [7] => (618)795-0629 cell [8] => [9] => Home [10] => Cell [11] => Work [12] => [13] => 2517 N. 38th Street; [14] => [15] => Fairmont City [16] => IL [17] => 62201 [18] => [19] => 20110930 [20] => ssn [21] => [22] => 20110831 [23] => 20090630 [24] => [25] => IL [26] => 00000000 ) Using my friendly dbf viewer, I get the following: 1234FooBar, ,Paul W. Geiger ,Geiger ,Dr. ,(618)271-7061 Home , ,(618)795-0629 cell , ,Home ,Cell ,Work , ,2517 N. 38th Street; , ,Fairmont City ,IL ,62201 , ,09/30/2011,20110930ssn, , / / , / / , / / , , /20/ Note the first date field goes in correctly but the following fields are corrupted. If I change all the date fields except the last one, the data in inserted 'correctly'. This is not a viable solution as this dbf table is used to transfer data to a legacy system. Test script: --------------- <?php $schema = array ( array('ACCOUNTNO','c',20), array('UCRDEAEXP1','D'), array('UCRTST1','c',2), array('URECPALSEX','D') ); $dbf = dbase_create('TEST.DBF', $schema); $data = array('Text Data', '20110911', 'ST', '20111111'); dbase_add_record($dbf, $data); dbase_close($dbf); ?> Expected result: ---------------- From the dbf viewer: Text Data,09/11/2011,ST,11/11/2011 Actual result: -------------- From the dbf viewer: Text Data,09/11/2011,20,11/ST/1109 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55771&edit=1
