It is set to 19 and I doubt the client will
be willing to change the dictionary to CENTURY
INCLUDED, because we are working on a
Y2K project using date windowing, so we are
not expanding their dates in the dictionary.

We will be working with both 1900 and 2000
dates, so won't changing the default century
cause us problems?

Will the INPUT CENTURY dictionary setting
help us at all?  We are date windowing for using
20 as a pivot date, so any dates over 20 are
considered to be 1900's and anydays less than
20 are considered to be 2000's.  I'm not
terrible sure how INPUT CENTURY works.
