RoundTrip has been tested with the clock date set beyond 1 January 2000 without any interruption to operation.

Rule 2:  Date-based functionality will behave consistently for dates prior to, during and after year 2000.

RoundTrip stores all dates as Julian dates (the number of days since a fixed origin), and therefore allows the representation of dates before and after January 1, 2000 and correctly performs calculations involving dates which span this date.  For RoundTrip, the origin for the Julian date numbers is January 1, 1900.

Rule 3:  If the product allows the user to enter a 2-digit shortcut for the year, the year is recognized consistent with a four-digit format.

When RoundTrip does not allow the entry of text-formatted dates with two year shortcuts.

Rule 4:  Year 2000 is recognized as a leap year.

RoundTrip recognizes that the year 2000 is a leap year and will compute serial date numbers correctly for dates in the 19th and 20th Centuries.

Year 2000 compliance information for third party products, including underlying operating systems and the software packages supported by RoundTrip,  is available from the developers of such products.  Circle Systems has not verified the contents of any third party compliance statements and is not responsible for, or the source of, any information contained in such statements.
