This error message is fired on the On Readerror - this isn't anything I have coded (although I do have validation code in place). Try it out and you will see. If you manually type in the 4 digit year, the error message does NOT fire.

Hi Missy,
You get the error because regardless of the SET CENTURY, FPW defaults that value to 2/29/1900, which wasn't a leap year. In terms of making the determination whether or not 2000 is a leap year (or 1900 isn't), there's no problem with FPW. It behaves as it should.
If SET CENTURY is on, then the user should type in all four digits of the year. Christof, has a nice solution to this. For myself, I've already written a Rollover function for FPW. However, by the time that comes into play, I don't expect to have any more applications in FPW.
