Re: Problem with time specification

[Lynn deWitt <ldewitt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jon,
  Does this also fix the cause of the error messages Matt noted at the 
end of his message:

Use of uninitialized value in addition (+) at ../xml/perl/genLas.pl 
line 218,
<STDIN> line 3.
Use of uninitialized value in numeric eq (==) at ../xml/perl/genLas.pl 
line 218,
<STDIN> line 3.
Use of uninitialized value in addition (+) at ../xml/perl/genLas.pl 
line 229,
<STDIN> line 3.

I get these sorts of messages in v6.2 also - but I haven't noticed a 
problem associated with them or figured out where they come from.   In 
fact, I think I got them starting with a clean install and using the 
default datasets. (But then things seemed to work so I just have been 
ignoring them).   Lynn
