No, =this= is stupid. Until the patch is actually posted to
the site and/or otherwise =available=, there is no guarantee
that such a patch will =ever= exist.

FWIW, Omega has stated that the Y2K patch will =not= be
available until =after= TS 5.0 is released. Well, listen
very closely..........

THE TS 5.0 BETA FOR THE BMI DATAFEED HAS NOT BEEN RELEASED
YET...........AND OMEGA DOES NOT EVEN HAVE A RELEASE DATE
(FOR THE BETA)  AT THIS TIME.

Now, if you think the Y2K patch is coming anytime soon, you
had better think again. If the Beta for BMI is not out yet,
how long do you suppose it will be before the final release
and.......then.......how long after that will the, now
infamous, "patch" appear?? 

I use TS 4.0 and it's failing NOW. I need a patch for the
current version =or= TS 5.0 =now= (I'd even take a Beta copy
if it worked with BMI). Unfortunately, it doesn't appear as
if either will be available for quite some time.
