Hi Paul

The datefield will always "hold" a 4-digit year, but you can format it as a string:

SELECT CONVERT(varchar, datefield, 103) ...

To all,

I have a date field in a table in SQL Server 2000, which displays the date as DD/MM/YYYY. Does anyone know how to make the date field just hold a 2 digit year DD/MM/YY ?

Thanks in advance for any help on this.
