Hello  Nancy, nice chatting with you. !  

 NB> You're using the one that hubby fixed, I think.

        Yes, I am. Good hubby of yours.

 NB> That is the kludge
 NB> for post-Y2K dates.  Before the fix, anything post-Y2K showed up as 10,
 NB> whether it was 2000, 2001 or 2008, as there was only space for 2
 NB> numbers there, and it took the first two of the 99 + X, but not the one
 NB> that really at least let one know which year it was.  Now there's the
 NB> capability for 3 numbers, so the year is shown as 100, 101, 108 etc
 NB> for dates Y2K and following.

        I did not pay attention to this bug in the first  screen that
   BW shows, it is still there. I know that the .rep itself was cured
   and properly too, Dale did fine job too, his was tricking BW in
   doing a proper date stamp. This date in the .qwk name does nothing.
     
       
...    It has been done now.
...      2008 is upon us. Let us be warry.
