Hi Eric,
>Actually this issue is related in that I have numerous people who have used a >2 digit >year in their data entry and now they have a person who died in 16 and were >born in 28 which makes them -12 years old right? According the the 4D date >format that is right. >At least based on what I am seeing in 4D with the pivot dates that is right. >The >question is how to force people who are entering dates to put in a 4 digit >year, >and be able to find the 2 digit years and be able to correct them to a proper >4 digit year. >Without messing up properly entered 4 digit years. With birthdates I don't think there is any question that 4 digits are mandatory. Pivot years don't help. It's gotta be totally unambiguous.
