Hi Cetin. Thanks, once again, for your advise. I should have restated my question better. Currently, the app. I am dealing with stores dates in the database as 05/27/98. The data type is, of course, Date which has a length of 8. I moved the system date forward to Jan 1, 2000 and entered some data to the app. I then checked the date in the table's field and it was stored as 01/01/19. This is what I see as being the problem. It there a way around this? I don't have any manuals to reference, thus that is why I post my question on the Thread.

Thanks,

Jason
