Hi, Henry.

>Thank you Martin. The above works, but is based on the assumption that the 1 digit year is from this century.

As Sergey pointed out, there is no way of telling the exact year if expressed with a single digit.

>Downside, it could be anywhere say for the last 30 years. Would the "Modified" column in Windows Explorer be useful in telling us of the exact year? If so, how doI capture that information?

Do you mean taking the date of the data file to determine the corresponding decade? I wouldn't consider that to be any assurance, but if you want...

You can get the file date using aDir()

lnDir = aDir( laDir, lcYourFile )

if lnDir = 1
   ? laDir[1, 3]
endif

What kind of file are you working with? I found many times two-digit years, but never single digits.

Good luck,
