Sorry, Andrew.  I should have read the Subject.  You mean
Excel?

From Excel's Help files.

Change the default date format   

By default, as you enter dates in a workbook, the dates are
formatted to display two-digit years.

Change the way two-digit years are interpreted

Caution  This procedure changes the way two-digit years are
interpreted for all the Microsoft Windows programs that you
have installed.

On the Windows Start menu, point to Settings, and then click
Control Panel. 
Double click the Regional Settings or Regional Options icon.

In the When a two-digit year is entered, interpret as a year
between box, change the upper limit for the century. 
As you change the upper-limit year, the lower-limit year
automatically changes.

Change the default date format to display four-digit years

When you change the default date format to a different
format by using this procedure, the display of dates that
were previously entered in your workbook will change to the
new format as long as the dates haven't been formatted by
using the Cells command (Format menu).

On the Microsoft Windows Start menu, point to Settings, and
then click Control Panel. 
Double click the Regional Settings or Regional Options icon.

In the Short date format list, click a format that uses four
digits for the year ("yyyy").
