If the year component of the date field is only two digits, then there will be problems. The remedy is to convert the year component of the date field to four digits. Another possible source of problems is older computers interfaced to equipment. There are some simple tests that you can do to determine if upgrades are needed.

Email is a terrific communication tool.
However, like many advances in technology, there are ways to use email that do not meet the professional standards I would expect in the work place. Therefore, I am suggesting a couple of principles that I think help us use email for maximum effectiveness. Anything that arrives that is not pertinent wastes the time of the recipient. Those whose job requires responding quickly to problems reported by email should be monitoring frequently and responding quickly. However, those whose job requires blocks of time with minimal interruption should set aside a time to handle email and should not bother with it outside of that time.
