****************************************************************************** BSW Electronic Mail 10-Jan-2000 15:10:01 CET Message Number 0090 ****************************************************************************** Author: BSW Team Subject: Third Y2K bug Dear users of the Bernese GPS Software, a third Y2K bug was detected in the software by Tim Springer and Elmar Brockmann. A problem occurs, if multi session campaigns which go over the year boundary 1999/2000 are processed with the BPE. The routine causing the troubles is $LM/SESPRP which is called by PCS_P. To cure the problem you may add one line between the lines 213 to 214 in routine $LM/SESPRP ISESYR(I1)=LYEAR ENDDO to get ISESYR(I1)=LYEAR ISESYR(I1)=MOD(ISESYR(I1),100) ENDDO The corrections will be included in a patch to be released soon. We appologize for any unconveniences caused by this error. Thanks for the bug reports. Best regards Urs Hugentobler PS: Two other Y2K bugs and the respective corrective actions are described in BSW Mails 88 and 89.
