>>This came as a shock to me, but OFF isn't necessarily the default setting in FPW 2.6. If, under Win 9x, the user selects a format for short dates that includes all four digits of the year, FPW (and that ain't a typo) seems to pick up on it. I just saw it a few minutes ago.

>Heh, I had been wondering why my machine was starting up FP Win 2.5 with set century on this week. I converted myself to long display yesterday to track down a problem with a filedate for a client. This would explain why Fox now starts that way when last week it started with century off. Thanks.

You're welcome, Melissa. For any lurkers there are two fixes for this. First, of course, is to reset the regional settings as they had been previous. Second, you can add the line CENTURY=OFF in the config.fpw.
