I juts tried it and this function shows 4-digit year on my computer: 2/26/2004
Possibly change your computer's regional settings if you really need to use that asp function.

If you are using this in a form field, you can type in mm/dd/yyyy or
m/d/yyyy or dd/mm/yyyy, etc. into the Format field property. Even though
these don't appear in the dropdown list you can type in your own format
string.

I'm using it in a query and not actually using now() as part of the function but getting the same results. If I use Year(Now()) I get a four digit year but in the dateserial function I get a two digit year. I did change the regional settings and got what I wanted but what if the server is set the same way then I can't change it, how do I get the four digit year in the function when on the server?
Thanks for the tip on regional settings!
