<< Double click on "My Computer".

  Double click on "Control Panel".

  Double click on "Regional Settings" icon.

  Click on the "Date" tab at the top of the page.

  Where it says, "Short Date Sample", look and see
 if it shows a "two digit" year. Of course it does.
 That's the default setting for Windows 95,
 Windows 98 and NT.  This date RIGHT HERE is the
 date that feeds application software and WILL NOT
 rollover in the year 2000.
 It will roll over to 00.

 Click on the button across from "Short Date
 Style" and select the option that shows, mm/dd/yyyy.
 (Be sure your selection has four  Y's  showing, not two)

 Then click on "Apply" and then click on "OK" at
 the bottom.

Windows 95 nor 98 has anything called "Short Date Sample".  Neither does it
have "Short Date Style", unless I am looking in the wrong place.  I followed
your directions until I got to the "Short Date Sample".  Not there anywhere.
