Hello,


R:Base 5.5 user here. I’m guessing we’re rare…



I have a CSV file with a date column formatted MM/DD/YY.  I am able to
successfully load the file (as ASCII) into an R:Base 5.5 table with a
matching structure. After importing the CSV file into the table, the date
column contains MM/DD/00YY instead of MM/DD/20YY. Does anyone know why?
Excel properly interprets the date when the file is opened.


DATE format           mm/dd/yyyy

DATE sequence      MMDDYYYY

Century threshold YEAR is 0

Default CENTURY is   19


Not quite sure why our default century is 19....not sure what century
threshold year is....



Thank you!
