DataCop

With a first customer ship in September 1996, Check 2000 is now established as the standard by which other year 2000 PC products are measured. This is largely due to the maturity of the brand and the work Greenwich Mean Time has done to cater for the in-depth scoping of large enterprise PC year 2000 projects, providing the management methodology necessary to achieve successful survival outcomes.

Greenwich Mean Time views the PC year 2000 challenge as merely a symptom of uncontrolled desktop computing environments. Thus, the company's long term goals include a wide spectrum of user oriented products for desktop and Standard Operating Environment management well beyond the year 2000.

Headquartered in the UK, Greenwich Mean Time operates as a global company and currently has offices in North America, Europe, Africa and Asia Pacific. Check 2000 was the best selling year 2000 tool in 1998 in the US according to PC Data Jan 1999. Our products are available in Portuguese, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Afrikaans, and Japanese.

DataCop is used to detect, correct and protect date data as they appear in spreadsheet cells, database formulae and macros. This will prove a boon to companies that are overwhelmed by the task of correcting data for year 2000 readiness.

Much like a spell checker, DataCop monitors dates as they are entered from any source, including the keyboard, floppy disk, CD-ROM, e-mail, LAN, and the Internet. It flags incomplete or incorrect dates such as those containing only two-digit years, prompting the user to correct them on the spot, before they are saved and used as the basis for calculations or financial assumptions. It gives the user a wide range of options for correcting to dates that will be interpreted correctly for calculations that span both the 20th and 21st centuries. DataCop contains a knowledge base of more than 75 common problematic date formats.

This site is being designated as a Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure and the information contained herein is provided pursuant to the terms hereof and the Year 2000 Information and Readiness Disclosure Act.
