Summary: Setting the date takes time to become effective.

There have been several complaints that programs that set the time and
date do not work.  I hve written some that do, but it takes time for
them to become effective.  If you use setdate() and then mouse the
control panel the date and time are not changed, but after about a
minute they jump to their correct values.  I have my date program in an
AUTO folder and it works fine.  By the way, AUTO is read before the
desktop, so if you have a colour monitor the program will run in low res.
