Seems to me that the vast majority of Microsoft products are compliant. There are some issues with some older software, but I didn't see anything earth-shattering.

BTW, I'm waiting on pins and needles for your report on the "6 or 7 bugs" in the VB date routines you encountered. I couldn't find any mention of such bugs in Microsoft's own assesment:

microsoft.com

In fact, it seems that 4-digit dates are always handled correctly and that the only "issue" is what a 2 digit date conversion defaults to (based on which version of VB you are using).
