NT has to be at fix pack 4.0 to be Y2K, Windows 95 is full of Y2K bugs needing patches here and there, various office programs are not Y2K compliant, IBM programs have had Y2K fixes and the list goes on. They were also "supposedly Y2K" when they were sold. Many of the fixes on the OGS list, if you actually look at them are minor, some are cosmetic and some on the list are not even Y2K fixes at all if you read the full descriptions. Some are even just help text changes. A few actually are important to get if you have or use that program. And if you have stayed current with cumes, there really are not many fixes left to obtain. I think I counted needing 5 BMRs more (not all 'A' showstoppers either) if you are current on 6.0.04 with the July 1999 cume. Also, the new version of the spreadsheet does have more detailed views and information that the one you appear to have viewed and can better assist you in deciding what to order. It has 3 different views of the BMRs for a given release. +--- | This is the BPCS Users Mailing List! | To submit a new message, send your mail to BPCS-L@midrange.com. | To subscribe to this list send email to BPCS-L-SUB@midrange.com. | To unsubscribe from this list send email to BPCS-L-UNSUB@midrange.com. | Questions should be directed to the list owner: dasmussen@aol.com +---
