: The View|Dates pop-up window only accepts 2-digit years, and appears to do
: something strange with values 00 and/or 01. After typing 01 and pressing
: the down-arrow to view a calendar month, the year shows up as 1752. I can
: get FM to show me graphs into the year 2000 by selecting the date in the
: calendar view, but users should also be able to directly type a date in
: the next century. Also, once I select a date (from the calendar) in the
: next century, I can't get back to the current century without selecting
: from the calendar (direct entry of a 2-digit year doesn't revert to 19xx). : Running FM 4.1.202 Hi George, Fund Manager uses your system's Windows settings for controlling how to
enter years. See: "Control Panel / Regional Settings / Date" In the calendar section, there are some controls specifying how to
interpret a two digit year. You can adjust these to your preference.
Also, you can control the date format by adjusting the "Short Date
Style" in this dialog. If you wish to enter your years as 4 digit years,
you can change this to something like: M/d/yyyy Thanks,
Mark
