>I just installed VFP/6 and the SET CENTURY ON command doesn't seem be be working. In VFP 5 my dates in a table show as 01/02/2000 and 01/02/00 with CENTURY ON and OFF respectively. In VFP 6 they show as 1/2/00 regardless of the CENTURY setting. Only when I highlight the field in the table does it show as 01/02/2000, but all other records still show as 1/2/00. However, the DTOC of the datefield always gives me 1/2/00. What am I missing???

Rudy,

There is Use System Setting checkbox under Tools->Options->Regional.

As Foxpro help states "Use System Setting specifies that all settings on this tab are read from the system (as established in the Control Panel). In this mode, most options are read-only."
