Microsoft Works will display February 29th as February 1st in either the Database or Spreadsheet if the current year is not a leap year (a leap year is every year that is evenly divisible by four, except for years that are evenly divisible by 100). There are 29 days in February if it is a leap year, otherwise only 28 days.

For example, by entering February 29th and including a leap year, February 29th will be displayed. Enter February 29, 1992, in a field/cell that has been formatted for just the month and day, and February 29th will appear.
