Matt, when you work with dates in ebase or Filemaker, you need to start
using 4 digit years, e.g. 2000. You have a couple of options here:
1. you can do the import again - but before you begin the import process,
you will need to change all the dates fro 00 to 2000 in your legacy data.
2. Since you already have your data in ebase, You can create a Filemaker
calculation (you need to have FMPro and open ebase with the "master"
password) to replace or substitute the 00's to 2000 - you'll have to refer
to the Filemaker User's Guide to do this, or you can ask how to do this on
the Support listserve (if you haven't subscribed, you just type SUBSCRIBE
on the subject line and send the message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
