In such circumstances, please give the message-ID.  With that, I could
fetch the articles, if I did not already have them, very easily by
entering the m-ID into my off-line system for the next news collection.
Of course, for those without such a facility, the Deja reference is
good; though I believe Deja can find by m-ID.

Anyway, as yet I do not know what the question is, except by the Subject
line.

There are references in my pas-time.htm and prog2000.htm, via SigLine 2.

No Y2k problem is AFAIK expected in TP7/BP7 themselves, or in their
libraries, though a programmer can readily enough generate such in his
own code.

Pedt : is this a candidate Q for mFAQs?


N.B. Borland don't like cross-posts on their servers, but you (RAHP) are
not using a Borland feed, so your post will not appear there.  Therefore
I have reversed the newsgroups line.  This too might be referred to in
the mFAQ?


Could the mFAQ go into the other newsgroups, in comp.* and alt.*, that
deal with Pascal (or Delphi?)?
