RE: DLTOLDSPLF and Y2K

[Roger Boucher <RBoucher@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I believe there was a known bug with the DLTOLDSPLF command (the one that
used to come with the AS/400).  I know it was NOT Y2K ready... although I
can't say for sure the same exact bug caused your problem (but it seems
likely).  Fixing the bug is very easy and if anyone is having a problem I
can offer the fix.

message: Here is a report on my first serious Y2K problem found too late
(today):

The V3R1M0 TAA-tool command DLTOLDSPLF will delete (in addition to all old
spoolfiles created in 1999) _ALL_ spoolfile (no matter how 'old' or new)
created in 2000. The test at my major customer has missed this part, causing
serious loss of spoolfiles.

Pls. note that I am not aware of any problems with the commands with the
same name from http://www.taatool.com/ or http://hkrebs.dk/dltoldsplf.html
