Access 2000 9.0 - 32-Bit Windows
Recommendation: No action necessary.
Note: The easiest way to make sure that dates are specified with accuracy for the century is to create an Input Mask that allows entry of only four-digit years.
Date handling: Dates are interpreted by using the automation libraries. For more information, see the white paper, "The Automation Libraries and the Year 2000".
By default, dates are displayed in general date format, which is a combination of short date and short time (for example, m/d/yy), as specified in Control Panel Regional Settings. Custom formats can be created to display years as four digits.

Access 2.0 - 16-Bit Windows
Recommendation: Install the updated Acc2Date.exe.
Date handling: By default, Access 2.0 interprets dates that are entered by the user or imported from a text file as occurring in the 1900s. After installing the Acc2Date.exe, two-digit shortcuts 00 - 29 are interpreted to be years between 2000 and 2029; 30 - 39 are interpreted to be between 1930 and 1999.
