We'd better check for this '19' business. I think... and I have thought
wrong. I thought that the century was taken from the current year
(system date), so I tried to set it to 2000 and got
set cent on
?{01.01.00}
01.01.1900
....which is pretty stupid of Fox (I'm talking VFP 5.0). I couldn't
believe they've hardcoded the century. So we'll really have to Set
Century Rollover Beethoven...
