Hi All,
var
DT:TDateTime;
begin
Writeln(BoolToStr(TryStrToDate('1',DT),True));The result of above code is "True" with FPC and "False" with Delphi.

Is TryStrToDate works wrong?

This is normal. FPC accepts more than Delphi, see the documentation:

Hi!
The result is true, but the date is nonsense:
ShowMessage(BoolToStr(TryStrToDate('1',DT),True) + lineEnding +
formatdatetime('dd.mm.yyyy',DT));results in
/True//
/
/01.01.2020/
Not what I exspected.

But exactly what it is supposed to return. It fills missing numbers with the current year/month. So, 1 jan 2020.
