tech: Yep. Listening. Not believing. Message 2854045 And, a snippet from another of my posts ... "FULLY AUTOMATED I still maintain that advertising a 'fully automated Y2K solution' is stretching the truth beyond acceptable limits. If the phrase were changed to 'fully automated Y2K code conversion', then I wouldn't so readily attack it. Still, though, 'fully automated' anything is unlikely. It still takes real people to define what an application (or unit of work) is, determine all its related entities, collect the pertinent source data, setup the conversion rules, perform the conversion, package the results, and ship them back to the client, who will then implement the changes, test them, and implement into production (hopefully). What CSGI has 'fully automated' is the code conversion step. But, I think that's what all the others have done, too. You'll never get me to agree that anybody has a 'fully automated Y2K solution'. That would be a 'silver bullet', which doesn't and won't exist." TED
