Re: Y2K Suggestions?

[Glenn Ericson <Glenn-Ericson@xxxxxxx>]

Tim-
PowerTools  does not support 36 stuff but  RPG III & IV.
Seach2000  does the IA work and feeds Bypass2000  et al  for remediation
effort.

TELL ME  is this for  the F50  you  once mentioned?
There are some alternative  choices for you perhaps  at a lesser cost.
You  just want to  do impact analysis of these RPG programs or  is OCL  and
 automatic  remediation/ code fix  necessary too?
