It sounds like the date format has been reconfigured in the IOK file. The "unique values" option will simply show all unique dates using the field's configured date format.

I'd like to find out how this date format changed, presuming that it wasn't intentional. Where does your data come from? Is it possible that the date format in the incoming data has been changed?

What version did you have previously? If you go back to the previous version, are the old fields restored (I can provide a download link)?

Can you include your file here, or a sample IOK file (with sources) that replicates the problem?

Hi Steve. I'm certain the data source hasn't changed. Many of my IOK files are exhibiting this error and they draw from entirely different data sources. A colleague also reports experiencing the same issue. I'm keen to assist you in the troubleshoot but not entirely comfortable about posting files here - please advise on alternative arrangement. Thank you.

Please could you determine _some_ past build which did not exhibit this problem. I don't know whether you are coming from a 2.5 build from 2 years ago, or a 2.6 build from last month.

Can you reproduce the problem in a sample file and post here? Or, are you able to email me the IOK file and all source files, so I can run the model locally? If so, I will email you my details.

I'm coming from a 2.6 build from last month. I can send you the file - can you please ping me your email address? Thanks.

Attached is a screenshot of the situation.

Exact same issue here.

Here are 2 screenshots from 2 different machines opening exactly the same file but with different versions of omniscope:

beta 769 (x64)


rc 771 (x64)

Thanks, all. We are aware of the issue and will have a fix tonight.

The bug was fixed, it will be available in the next builds: 2.6-rc b777 and 2.7-alpha b40.
