Er, uh, my IIGS is off right now or I'd check, but I was going to post a
Y2K problem I have with AWGS 1.1 soon, anyway.  In the DB module, if you
have a calculated field that is the difference of 2 dates that span
1/1/2000, it gets it wrong.  That's likely true in the SS module, but I
haven't checked. 

Has anyone else seen this?  And does anyone (very unlikely) have a
patch?
