This routine is used to find out the year if only the two digits are passed as arguments. This is used for archiving purpose. This will work only for the 20 years basis. Meaning from today to 20 years if you pass any two digit the it will give you the correct year. if you pass any digit early then it will consider as later.

For E.g
TODAY = 2005
INCOMING = 95
OUTGOING WILL BE 1995

INCOMING = 84
OUTGOING WILL BE 2084

Thanks Karthik

Here are some more info.

This routine was developed to solve Y2K program.

For Example

T.VAR = '051114'
CALL EB.CHECK.DATE(T.VAR) will give you 20051114

T.VAR = '951114'
CALL EB.CHECK.DATE(T.VAR) will give your 19951114

The displacement value used here is 20 years.
