LOL...I haven't heard that one in awhile....last time I had a manager that insisted on 'reviewing the code' we ran an ARStruct of the system...turned out to be something like 900 pages....he wanted a printout....we duplexed, and had the mail room bind it for him....I doubt he ever even cracked the cover....but you could do a def, and then count how many lines are in the def....or you could count the # of objects (al, filter, etc) and then estimate an 'average' number of actions for each....and just multiply it out....any of this is a dangerous situation....because the person asking obviously doesn't know what they are asking in a Remedy system...and they are likely looking at how long it would take a 'programmer' to re-create the Remedy system in some other language by saying 'how long would it take you to code a 10,000 line program'....if I'm way off base, please let me know.

All, I've been asked to estimate the "number of lines of code we have in Remedy". Any ideas on how to approach a question like that? Feel free to save your response for Friday Humor if you prefer.
