Allways making space for 4 digit years in every input form and making shure whatever the user keys 4 digit years are displayed. You may also want to upgrade to 4GL version 7.2 so DBCENTURY works in case your users want that for sensible 2 digit year when inputing. There is however little or no need for this for anything but high speed keying such as manual payment transactions.
