<<Do you know the name of the guy who decided that COBOL only needed two digits to express years>> Cobalt, back in the 60's I was a systems development programmer at IBM working mainly on FORTRAN compilers, but I also did a stint on a COBOL compiler. You might be surprised to hear that many of the managers and programmers involved with both efforts were on the distaff side of the company.<GGG>
