Yup, chose the 4 digit year to store and display (*ISO & *USA) specifically to avoid the issue with 2039.
There are three kinds of date data formats, depending on the range of years that
can be represented. This leads to the possibility of a date overflow or underflow
condition occurring when the result of an operation is a date outside the valid
range for the target field. The formats and ranges are as follows:
Number of Digits in Year Range of Years
2 (*YMD, *DMY, *MDY, *JUL) 1940 to 2039
3 (*CYMD, *CDMY, *CMDY) 1900 to 2899
4 (*ISO, *USA, *EUR, *JIS, *LONGJUL) 0001 to 9999
