	M�rcia, VTX V6.2 is fully compliant for Y2K. The VMS code uses VMS times throughout which are OK. The TLS client allows input of 2digit years for CBR searches. Numbers after 80 are interpreted as 19xx. Years below 79 are interpreted at 20xx. SO, this is not a problem for 2000 but for 2080. I have already tested VTX V6.2 on a machine with the date set to various points after 1-jan-2000, without problems. -ronan

M�rcia,

is not a problem for 2000 but for 2080.
