TED,

you said, "it will be relatively easy to identify areas
of exposure, but very difficult to automate a fix."

I would respectively dissagree. As with the Y2K, the hardest part is finding the location of the correct field. Y2K would be even harder than Euro, (isolated chains, strange field names, etc.). I would think that once you have done the hard part, (identified areas at risk/exposure), it would be a minor matter to append a specified type of change. The system doesn't care what the currency actually is, just how it formats it, and how to handle it in an equation.

All, IMHO,

JSI

Dear Ted. PTUS released a Windows NT version tool on May 4th. They said it was able to work on more platforms, cheaper to use and other things. In your opinion would this tool see a big increase in licence demand? Would a product like this be a big hit, or no?
