Version 1.2.1 - October 2014
- Fixed an issue that caused the application to throw an exception when a date/time object was created with a time of 12:00am when the application was being run in certain time zones. The exception was due to the fact that in some time zones daylight savings time occurs at 12:00am and not 2:00am. This means that 12:00am is not a valid time because the clock ticks from 11:59pm to 1:00am in those time zones.
- Changed the spaces being printed to the output file to a printable character. The current version of GenEdits (1.2.8 v3) considers the ASCII character 0, which is what was being used, to be the end of the record.
