Dear EHF, << The fact still remains that most of the problems lie with systems using the Cobol code, whether you want to call it the culprit or victim. >> Please get some figures about the relative sizes of the problem in programs implemented in different languages (before making statements such as above 'most of the problems'). You can get these figures from e.g. the well known study of Capers-Jones; www.spr.com. In this study you will also see that he only regarded in his quantifications y2k in IT; not in non-IT (i.e. embedded systems). Regards, John
