2789.0. "Year 2000 issues" by IRNBRU::JWESTERMAN (Jeremy Westerman, MSG+ Middleware, Ayr.) Wed Feb 26 1997 07:11

 
One of our customers has asked us the following questions related to Year 2000
issues and DMQ.  Could you let me know some answers to give to him.

     1. Have you looked into the year 2000 issue?
     2. Do you know if there are any concerns/issues with
        the current version of the software?
     3. If so, has the vendor indicated the capability and timing
        re the upgrade of the software?
     4. If you are linking to legacy software with the bolt-on, have
        you given thought to whether or not the legacy software has year
        2000 implications?
     5. Bottom line....are they any concerns/implications that you should
        be looking at re the year 2000 issue.

Thanks, Jeremy.
