Have I been Hacked?

[The Missing Man]

Hi there,

I went into a data base I haven't touched in quite a while and found my date range for determining a portal sort all messed up. I now have some foreign asian characters in it. Have I been hacked? I never made any changes to the data base and it has always worked fine in the past. It appears to be just the year and only on this page.What went wrong. Any ideas?? See screen shot below.

Help!

Found it. Upgrade issue. I recently upgraded my operating system and this is a bug that can happen.

I just have to reform the date as custom and all is good.

Could you provide the operating system and upgrade version?  You should not have to change your date to custom.  If you are correct then this would affect thousands of FM users out here and it would be corrected by FM in form of updater.  

 

I wonder if it might have been a change made to your OS date settings instead.  Truly, it would be well worth understanding what went wrong and I would be willing to help you with it, including reviewing your file.

Actually, that is the recommended remedy:
