Tom: How does the data get into your tables?
I load a lot of my data from ASCII fixed field files with various date columns. Some of the values come in as 12/11/2008 while others come in as 12/11/08 for example. If your date format is set to MMDDYYYY and a value comes in to a table as MMDDYY then that value will show up as 12/11/0008. The bottom line is if you are importing data from external files then make sure your date format setting matches the format of the date values being loaded. Hope that helps. Have a great day.
