I assumed that there was no Y2K solution for MS for DOS since Equis
announced they would be supporting Y2K for MS for Windows and not the DOS
version.  I really didn't test it out.  I probably should.

I got absolutely nothing done this week and not much in the last few weeks,
My better half's been sick with the flu and my 8 year old was home from
school all week with a bug.

Tomorrow, I get to do a little work and then have another part of my
physical that I managed to avoid for many years.  Oh well, maybe Tuesday
will be productive.

And the new puppy isn't housebroken yet....

Regards

Guy

Good Plan!!!  VB should work fine (Myself, I use Fortran 77)
Yes, MS is a great little specialized charting utility!! (Key words,
"little" and "utility".  No flames intended!)

How did your Y2K test on MS V4.5 for DOS work out??
(From your statements above, can I assume not so well??)
