I have tested version 2.02 and the MAXIMUS user file editor works the same
way, but the user file utility BONK does not work; 100 cannot be entered
into the two digit field and if 00 is entered the date reverts to 80.

We have less than two months to go for the expiry date field.

I believe that only applies to the QWK standard.
