Do you mean that you are using that format for *displaying* DATE datatypes (via "format=" in forms or via DBDATE="dmy2/")? If so, users will only see "00" in the fields, which by itself is fine... BUT, entering a date value with "00" for year will be interpreted as the year 1900. In the near future, the "default century for dates entered with 2-digit years" will be selectable via an environment variable. -- (c) 1996 Alan Denney aland@informix.com Amount former Congressman Dan Rostenkowski of Chicago was fined for his mail-fraud convictions: $100,000 Amount he will continue to draw from a Congressional pension even while in prison: $100,000 per year.
