All,

You need to get a new version of DSSAT.  This is a Y2K problem in a older version, where the fix was not extended past 2010.

A short term solution with your current version, is to "pretend" that your weather year is 1910 and 1911, and label EVERYTHING as 1910 and 1911, including inside the weather file.  That is what I recommend you do.

Sorry about the problem.

Dear all,
I'm having the same problem when trying to run a simulation in XBuilder. When I select the weather station that I inserted the data with the ICASA date format (YYYYDDD), the avaiable years are 1910 or 1911, instead of 2010 and 2011.
Thank you in advance,
Regards

Dear all
when i want to make a wheather station data. I use the date units as :DSSAT Year Day-of-Year Format (yyddd) .The dates are inserted like 10196 (196 day of 2010). But the software doesn't detect the 2010 & 2011 years and the database goes on just to the end day of 2009.
What shoud i do?
Thank u
