Yeah Eric.....Thanks for rebuilding all my pointers in OPNMAT when I pulled the
plug on the power during a MAPICS reorg.  That one cost me me a bottle of
Southern Comfort.  Now that was real DUMB!   I think that was in 1984 or about.
I am still laughing at that one.  That was an all nighter.  You did a great job,
the users never missed a heartbeat.

3 year conversion....wow, that has to be costing big bucks!

Folks,
Some of you have me beat (Gail, especially).  I started working with Gail in
1983 MAPICS I S/34.  But I think I may have you beat on the software side.

I am currently working at a location that is converting to MAPICS R6 from a
heavily modified and Y2K ready (& running) version of IPICS.  The conversion
has been going on for almost 3 years since the users have offered no
assistance but we are finally going full steam and expect to go live
01/01/02 with about 12+ applications.

Can anyone top this one?

Eric
