    Smile Formatting problem with dates.

    Got a program were user enters month, day, and year(19XX).

    Suppose to display 01/01/01 format with zeros in front of the single digit days and months; and years that have zero as 3rd digit (2001, 1909).

    Only display it as 1/1/1 right now.

    Thanks for any input.

    something along these lines should do it....

    cout<< ((Day<10) ? "0":"") << Day;

    etc.
    Free the weed!! Class B to class C is not good enough!!
