ProDOS has a lookup table for getting the year. It goes something like "If it's Aug. the 30th and it's a Tues. then it must be 2005. The program to update ProDOS is the pdosclockup program that Bill gave a link to yesterday.

The Y2K patches were more program specific--AppleWorks, A couple of Glen Bredon's program, etc. I recently released with the help of Jeff Blakney a patch that will change the hard-coded century code in EasyDrive from a 19 to a 20. (Jeff wrote it, I just put it in the ftp sites. :) )

Later.................Howard
