Message: Tipo non corrispondente: 'CDate' on windows 10

Hi,
I just reinstall all on a new Win10 PC_ Last ACP + LAST MaximDL
When I run a script (like CenterScope.vbs) I get the following:

Initializing AcquireSupport V8.3.1
Telescope is ACP->10Micron Mount Driver, driver V3
MaxIm DL is version 6.26
Imager is ASCOM
**Script Error (Tracking has been stopped)**
Source: Errore di run-time di Microsoft VBScript
Message: Tipo non corrispondente: 'CDate'
Location: line 49 column 5.

I search in the forum and on my PC, but no way to understand the reason.

Regars

This is happening inside the ACP library AcquireSupport. It must be happening on everything! I need more info. Please go to ACP Preferences > Debugging and turn on this option. Now when you run a script you will get a pop=up error box. Please make a screen shot of it (use the "snipping tool" to make a JPG or PNG) and post here with that attached or in the message.

Telescope is ACP->10Micron Mount Driver, driver V3
MaxIm DL is version 6.26
Imager is ASCOM
**Script Error (Tracking has been stopped)**

Ok, yes, this is the date/time storage and conversion for the "last filter XXX used at <time" in the log. I've had this problem before at other European sites. I will remove the date reporting. It's not essential anyway.

I called and remoted in with Remote Assistance, removed the bad date, then it came back. So I patched the date part out. I will fix this the right way for next release:

ACP-1810 - Log of last used filter blows up on some European systems

Tanks, Bob.
The problem that we didn't see as many stars is because it got cloudy here ;-)
I'll try again tomorrow, but it seems to be working now.
