I have an old database file in DBF format that I use Microsoft Access
to display. The dates in the DBF file only has 2 digits, so when it's
opened under Access, some dates are displayed as "19xx", while other
dates just as "xx". It creates quite a problem when I sort or search
by the dates. I do have a simple way to figure out whether the year
"xx" is 20xx or 19xx, so I was wondering if there is a way to add a
small macro for the date fields, such that when this DBF file is
opened under Access, proper conversion of the year would take place
automatically.
