6.7.1.1.1. Handling dates greater than year 2000 in VPlus

A JCW called VSETNEXTCENTURY can be set to enable handling of dates beyond 2000.

1) To enable handling of dates with a 4 digit year component, set bit 15 of this JCW to 1. (bits are numbered from 0 to 15)

2) To change the interpretation of the 2 digit year, set bit 14 of the JCW to 1.

All unused bits of the JCW should be set to 0.

**OS release where these enhancements will be available is not yet known.


6.7.1.2. DEL (Data Entry Language)

SS
DEL was the predecessor to VPlus, but has been obsoleted. DEL is still available by special request to HP.


6.7.1.3. Wingspan

CB
Gives you the ability to generate pull-down menus, pop-up windows, pc-style menus, context sensitive help, all with code that can be ported among MPE and various flavors of Unix and even DOS. Does everything VPlus can, and a lot it never dreamed of. Also has an option (TVP) which can intercept standard VPlus calls and add context-sensitive help and pull- down picklists to regular Vplus applications. Contact Denkart.
