we are committed to producing the highest quality software products and services. We have recognized the issues and potential problems associated with the storage and calculations of dates with two digit year fields. All dates used within are products utilize a standard four digit year or system specific representation that does not use the mmddyy or ddmmyy format.

the millennium bug occurs when the RTC (real time clock) year changes from 99 to 00; those BIOS that always add 19 will continue to do so, making the year after 1999 1900! motherboards in PCs have a clock in the CMOS called the RTC . the RTC date is stored as day/month/year, each as 2 digit numbers. when the RTC/BIOS date is requested, some BIOS add 1900 as the century; others apply a value stored elsewhere in the CMOS. this may lead to data corruption. mddansby offers a comprehensive, cost effective solution, saving your organization time and money dealing with the PC millennium bug and the leap year bug.

The American Red Cross and Federal Emergency Management Agency are both recommending the American public prepare for Y2K by stocking up on extra supplies. The Red Cross recommends a one-week supply. Most people taking action on Y2K preparedness are working on a 30-day, 60-day or 90-day supply.
