DRP540 Y2K Error ? -Reply

["Steve Gagliardi" <STEVEG@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have not experienced a problem with DRP540 but I have had date related 
problems.  The problems I encounted are that asset has a century compliant bug. 
 Programs developed in asset,  whether they are BPCS or yours,  if using the 
date functions to convert dates from one format to another or number of days 
does not work correctly.  SSA's solution is to run an SSA command from the 
commmand line then regenate the asset program which will add the fix for the 
century bug.  The following is the command used  (CHGCENGEN promt and enter the 
parms "Y" to enhance century generation and"40" for  rollover year).  I know 
some have changed asset programs to call the SYS900/SYS903 date programs which 
also will work but this extra programming should not be necessary.
