Please do not forget that Mudcreek's GenViewer will do this also. You
can open a Legacy file in GenViewer, and convert that file to a CVS.
Then, you can open that file from Excel, OpenOffice Calc, Lotus, Quattro
Pro, Boeing Calc (Discontinued, I believe), MultiPlan (eBay?), SuperCalc
that I am aware of. Last I checked, Mudcreek still offers a trial.

By the way, Mudcreek also sells a product called GenMatcher, a product
many users find useful.

As far as I know, if you set Legacy for 4 year display, and you should
get four year display when you do this.

Sorry I lost the thread - overly zealous with emptying the Trash.
Legacy does not seem to sort by Month, Days and Years separately, but
once you've imported a csv file into a spreadsheet you can sort it
there with more choice. At least it works in OpenOffice, sort of. If
I import a date such as 23 Sep 1901 from Legacy, OO will turn it into
23/09/01. This can get a bit confusing if it might be 1701 or 1801 or
2001. Haven't figured out yet how to make it keep 4 digit years.
