>When I set the machine to 2000 the textbox on the form that contains the date (whose value is initialized by formname.textbox.value = date()) appears with a 4 digit date even though century is set off. As soon as the user types_ in it it snaps to a 2 digit century.

Have you tried setting the Century property for the textbox to .T.? But everyone else has the right idea, SET CENTURY ON. It will always show 4 digits, but you don't necessarily have to enter them.
