In a set operation, the value assigned is less than 99.

Remarks

This property allows a 2-digit year to be translated to a 4-digit year. For example, if this property is set to 2029, the 100-year range is from 1930 to 2029. Therefore, a 2-digit value of 30 is interpreted as 1930, while a 2-digit value of 29 is interpreted as 2029.

If the value of the TwoDigitYearMax property is set to 99, the ToFourDigitYear method returns its year parameter unchanged. Therefore, a 2-digit value of 30 is interpreted as 30.
