Re: Job dates

Thanks for the clarification Bruce.  It is also worth pointing out that
this fixed window is the one used by RPG, COBOL, etc. when handling two
digit dates.  I assume SQL is the same as the underlying support is the
same.  For this reason I can't see that the window could be changed other
than by introducing new date formats.  It would be a disaster waiting to
happen.
