I have made short reply to Ed Rauh, because his one was actually oversimplification. I would expect to speak, if necessary, with Ed about this, not with you. Anyway, if you have to drop some insight to a thread, you may feel free to address the person who asked a question. George, as I understand, says that FPW app is mostly, to the extent of developer's skills, compliant, and I expressed, though briefly, the same idea.
Whatever, you see on UT, you still have no grounds to bold some words underscoring your doubts about anyone's credentials.
Anyway, there is certain circle of people here, who are very aware about your and mine skills, reputation, personality etc.

>George's response has a lot of insight. However, in many cases, set century on is not enough. To say "just by setting century on", which you did, is an oversimplication of the process. George's response is George's response, not yours. It had a lot of insight, and clearly, he put a lot of thought into it.

>>>It is not a personal attack. You simply cannot make an existing FPW 2.x Y2K compliant just by setting century on. IMHO, you have over-simplified a situation.
