>Not sure about 2.6 DOS and Windows because I don't have them but in FoxPro 2.5 DOS for a table updated today, 1/25/2000, LUPDATE() returns 1/25/1900.

Hi Colin,

Prior to VFP 6.0, Fox got the information from the header of the table. This data was stored with the year as two digits (characters really). Since the default century portion applied to two digit years was 19, that's why you seen this behavior. Using the date column returned by ADIR() should work.
