Hi Christof,
Read your article in March 98 Advisor "Survive the Year 2000..." and really appreciate the solution you present.
At article end, you say that fixed CTOD() & LUPDATE() functions are available, but I can't find anywhere, not even at Advisor.com. I bought issue from newsstand and didn't get Resource Disk. Could you point me to where they are, or Email them to me?
TIA,
Bill

>>If I have a date field where I have SET CENTURY ON and have the user entering a 4-digit year, does Y2KFox re-interpret that year? In other words, if the user has typed in 1910 and I have my rollover set to 15, will it change that year to 2010?

>Nope, Y2KFOX doesn't touch 4-digit years, only 2-digit years. The reviewer actually used a rather strange combination of three GETs that span a length of over 100 years. In that case a rollover feature can't work, it handles of course only 100 years. What it does is to let you move this range. In the case the reviewer presented, three lines would have saved him all troubles. In the WHEN snippet of each date value you can change the rollover value, and for example set it to 99 for birthdates or to 15 for other dates.
