RE: YEAR 2K TESTING

[Dwight Slessman <dslessman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It seems like I read that setting the date ahead on OS/400 is generally not 
a good idea.  It could destroy software keys, etc.  Only do this after 
thorough investigation.

Subject:        YEAR 2K TESTING

GUYS,

I need to know the details involve in testing for Y2K.  Right now, I'm
preparing to set the date to 01/01/2000 and perform all normal user
daily tasks on a weekend.  I will then reset the date back to current
date and users will get back on the following Monday performing their
normal tasks.  I'm I on the right track.  My OS is V3R7MO and I'm
currently on BPCS 6.0.2.

All your input will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Oludare
