I have a built a deployed application in vdb 5.6 successfully used for several years. Date entry fields had only two digit years. A bringup entry for 13 Jan 2000 was entered 13/01/00 and recorded as 13/01/1900. The solution was to set century on for each form in the application and recompile. eg CLASS MAILFORM OF FORM Set Procedure To C:\VISUALDB\SAMPLES\BUTTONS.CC additive this.View = "MAIL.QBE" this.Text = "Edit Mail" this.Left = 0.833 this.ColorNormal = "0xffff80" this.Top = 0.1758 this.PageNo = 2 this.Height = 25.4111 this.Width = 126 set century on . I have since updated all my applications thus . I recommend that others do the same else there will be trouble with dates

In Visual dBASE 5.6 there's a better solution, or even better you can do a combination: Try: SET CENTURY ON and SET EPOCH TO 1950 (help on SET EPOCH is in the readme file that was installed with Visual dBASE 5.6 when you ran the patch software).
