Thanks all. I know that this is compliance 101, but I needed to do a sanity check in case there's a clause in the R&TTED that I'm missing. I've reviewed it and don't see any such thing (article 5).
John- you're absolutely correct. I used DoW because I can never remember how many "c"s are in docopocoss.

You are almost right; the OJ actually gives the 'docopocoss' - the Date Of Cessation Of Presumption Of Conformity Of the Superseded Standard, and after THAT date only the current version of the standard is valid. It is not always the same as the dow. -- OOO - Own Opinions Only. See www.jmwa.demon.co.uk Why is the stapler always empty just when you want it?
