Y2K / Millennium bug compliance and leap years

Last updated: 16 Feb 1999

While Lotus states that the latest versions of Approach is Y2K ("Year 2000") ready (see http://www.lotus.com/home.nsf/welcome/y2k), this is no guarantee that a particular database application is. For instance, if you use calculations on dates, remember that the leap year formula is:

(Y MOD 4 == 0) AND ((Y MOD 400 == 0) OR (Y MOD 100 <> 0))

Also see articles '21st Century Dates' and 'Two digit year assumptions (eg 01/01/29)'.
