Product
Maintenance:
While
Microsoft
continues to
recommend
that
customers
install the
most current
Service
Pack/Release
for non-Year
2000
reasons, we
understand
that, for
many
reasons,
this may not
be possible.
In order to
aid our
customersÆ
Year 2000
efforts,
Microsoft
intends to
maintain
PowerPoint
2000 version
9.0
as
compliant
through
January 1,
2001. Newer
Service
Packs are
also to be
maintained
as
compliant,
and may
include
additional
non-Year
2000
updates.
This is
intended to
minimize the
Year 2000 as
a reason to
upgrade.
How the
product
handles
dates:
Dates are
stored in
string
format or a
metacharacter
placeholder
that gets
and displays
the current
system time
as a string.
The
GetDateFormat
system
function
converts the
current date
to a string
according to
system
settings
selected by
the user.
Two-digit
shortcut
handling:
PowerPoint
supports
2-digit
shortcuts
for date
field
display
only. User
entry is
text only
and is not
considered a
date
representation.
Common
date usage
errors:
User
applications
should not
rely on the
text date
representation
within a
PowerPoint
presentation
because it
is only
available as
plain text.
Query,
calculations,
and other
operations
are best
conducted by
using
standard
document
properties.
Testing
guidelines
and
recommendations:
In
general,
avoid
testing in a
production
environment
or with
nonduplicated
production
files
because side
effects with
other
products
cannot be
predicted.
Interoperability
testing with
other
Microsoft
Office
products can
be conducted
safely.
The
following
areas should
be looked at
to verify
that dates
are being
properly
used. This
table can be
used to
guide
testing of
PowerPoint
within your
organization.
