Hi All, I have noticed that we have tables going back to March 2009 in the EM database and can only find entries in these for events. None of the entries are linked to an ORDER_ID, so I imagine that I can delete these tables. Is there a 'nice' way of doing this, or do I have to delete from within SQ...

Hi All,

Running 6.4.01.200 on Windows.

Hi All,

Just in case anyone is interested, this is the method for changing the odate.

The server date is correct!
