Well according to both my recollection, and Wikipedia ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accenture) Accenture started out as a division of Arthur Andersen, but split from Arthur Andersen in 1989, but was still part of the AWSC administrative entity. It wasn't until August of 2000 that Andersen Consulting was split from AWSC and became Accenture.

My English is poor, but I strongly believe it is not something proper or even kind to change someone's name. Andersen is not Anderson. And Andersen Consulting is (was) not Arthur Andersen. Just like Amdahl/Oracle/Storagetek is not IBM. Puma is not Adidas. Disclaimer: I just share information I have. I didn't say nothing good or bad about AC or any other company. I do not work for any of them. -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland -- BRE Bank SA ul. Senatorska 18 00-950 Warszawa www.brebank.pl Sd Rejonowy dla m. st.
