 DATE$[ = stringexpression$]
 
 Usage Notes
   ■ When you change the date in your computer's system with the DATE$
     statement, the change remains in effect until you change the date again.
 
   ■ The valid range for setting the system date differs from the valid range
     used by date/time functions to convert serial numbers.
