Bob Fulks was kind enough to post to this list a notice posted on Omega's
web site concerning Trade Station's Y2K compliance. A portion of his post
appears as follows:
The current shipping versions of the Company's products, TradeStation 4,
OptionStation 1.2, TradeStation ProSuite 4 and SuperCharts 4 all utilize
Julian dating, in which each day is identified sequentially, as opposed to
being identified as a 2-digit date for a particular year. The use of Julian
dating, accordingly, does not raise any Year 2000 issues.
I interpret this to mean that if we convert Gregorian dates to Julian
dates, we can defer our date problem until well into the next millennium.
Does anyone know if I am correct? This appears to be a viable solution
for those who use Trade Station to do end of day analysis and do not depend
upon them as a data server. Any comments would be most appreciated.
