I had a similar experience with my UMP2K last week while updating some
birthdays/anniversaries. It only happened to me while only using a two
digit year. Say, 3/16/68 instead of 3/16/1968. The date set up in Names
as 3/16/2068.
I don't know if I'd call this a 'bug', since how is the computer
supposed to know which century you want the date in unless you tell it?
Once I used a four digit year, everything set up nicely as expected.
Cheers,
Jim.
