I am using DBMAN to run a alumni database. I would like to force the users to enter in all four digits for their graduating year (1991 rather than 91) I looked throughout the archives and didnt see this topic addressed.
Thanks

You can use a default value of '19' in the Database def. of the requested field in your .cfg file, so that in the input field already is '19'.

Good luck

Another thing you can do is have a select list for the years.

Another thing you can do is to require four digits.

In the field definition, set the "Maximum Length" for the field to 4 and set the "Regular Expression" to '\d{4}'. This will require at least four digits to be entered.

You might also make a notation on the form that 4 digits are required.
