Hi:

When I read from the user manual, I find the description for date mask RR is:

  last two digits of year for years in other centuries.

Can anyone explain this statement to me in details with example, please?

What is the difference between YYYY and RR for input and output fields? And which one is better to beat the year 2K problem?
