 LM>  That Exactly the answer i want to here Thanks,Nancy

you were asking about Blue Wave Y2K fixes all this time?? why didn't you just
say so?? ;)

take a look here

  http://www.wpusa.dynip.com/files/BLUEWAVE/

there's two types of fixes... one is a binary patch (BW-Y2K.ZIP - newer and
preferred) for some of the bbs doors and end-user readers...

the other is an addon (BWRF066.ZIP - aka BWREPFIX) used in place of the
archivers on the end-user's reader or on the bbs end after the REP has been
decompressed...


on the other hand, if you were asking about usdates to OFFLINE, then no...
according to sean, it has not had any patches or updated in 20 years...
