I've added a date column. When I click on that field in the custom edit page, the default is 01 Jan 101. I have a default format of yyyy-MMM-dd. To edit the field, I double click on the 101 and change it to 2010 or whatever, as appropriate. Then I double click on 01, correct to the day and then immediate type in the three-letter code. IF you type in July, you will end up resetting in back to Jan.

Changing the default to yyyy-MM-dd operates identically.

Any ideas on what to change to change the default year to something a little more friendly to the drop-down calendar. Clicking month-by-month from the second century A.D. to the current era is tiring me out.

Thanks in advance for any help, GM
