The plot thickens, Jim . . . !! You're right, the blanks aren't blanks and
apparently the years aren't years . . . . when I plugged this into a new
field: YRConvert1: CStr(Format([year],"yyyy")), ALL dates except null
converted to 1905. Ouch, I was hoping I could find a way to filter out
projects that were closed more than 2 years ago, my tables are really
getting huge, but don't have any control over the table that stores
whatever data they're plugging in to the 'year' field.
I don't really know where to go from here . . . . any ideas? Thank you so
much for hanging in there with this. :)

Maybe the blank cells aren't really null? How about:
YRConvert:IIf(([year] Is Null) Or (Trim([year]) & "" = ""),Now(),[year])
