Within the scope that it operates, Y2KFOX does a fine job of making FPDOS apps Y2K compliant; it's a commercial product that is sold on a per-seat basis. It works by loading before the FPDOS executable and monitoring date manipulations; adding a couple of lines of code to your application's startup, and using their loader to start your app or the FoxPro executable are all that you should need to do to enable it.

It won't fix doing silly things in code, but in the contexts that I've tested it, it works well, and is very easy to implement. If you're manipulating dates as dates in your application, it should do the job.
