Hi George

I've tried set century on as follows but the date always appears with 4 digits:

1. On a from I set up a Button, whose click event has :
Set century off
Thisform.refresh()

2. I enter my text box control (which has todays date
The date still apeears as 13/02/2004 (European )

What I want to do is get it to display as 13/02/04

regards
Gerard
