01 dates importing as 1901

[Steven H. Blackwell]

First, be sure that you are using a Y2K compliant version of FMP, namely 4.0v3, 4.1v3, 5.0vx, or 5.5vx. There may also be an updater for FMP3 as well.

That said, the easiest wau to address this is to alter the text file before it is imported so that the dates are explicitly 2001.

FMP 3.0v6 is Y2K compliant.

I've got a txt file that I import into FM4 which includes a field in mm/dd/yy format. It is being imported into a table witht the date field set to format as mm/dd/yyyy. The current year is showing as 1901. Any ideas what I have to do so that it imports it reflecting the proper year.
