ORACLE Date Ranages and Y2K Bug

I am working on some reports that have user defined date ranges. I am trying to Y2K proof them. I have succeeded in using the MM/DD/RR date format. I can get the data when the date ranges are within the same century.

 Example:

      From Date: 12/01/1998 To Date: 12/31/1999
      From Date: 01/01/2000 To Date: 01/31/2001

These date ranges work fine. The problem developes when I input a date range
in like the following:	From Date: 12/01/1998 To Date: 01/31/2001

The program can't find the transactions when I cross the into the year 2000 from the 1900's.

Has anyone ever come up against this problem? I would appreciate any help you can give.

Thanks
