You may want to try that since it will only take a minute to try. I believe that you can use {^01/01/96} if you have strict date on. Try those and hopefully someone using 6 that has run into this can help more.

Actually, its {^1996/01/01}. Or you can try SET STRICTDATE TO 0, effectively turning strict date checking off.
