All dates with year number > 80 are assumed to be from 20th century (19xx) with your setting.

From VFP help:


For example, if the current year is 1998 and nYear is the default (48), any date entered without a century portion and a year of 48 or greater is considered to be in the current century (the 20th century). Any date entered without a century portion but with a year before 48 is considered to be in the next century (the 21st century).

Replace 48 with 80 in the text above to get a clue
