Product Details

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 customers’ Year 2000 efforts, Microsoft intends to maintain BackOffice SBS version 4.5 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.

Operational Range for Data: 1950 to 2030

There are two aspects of Year 2000 compliance for BackOffice Small Business Server 4.5: compliance of the individual BackOffice Family components in the suite (such as Windows NT Server and SQL Server), and compliance of suite-specific features such as integrated setup and the administrative console.

The suite-specific features of BackOffice Small Business Server 4.5 do not use dates, and are thus Year 2000 Compliant.

Product Details

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 customers’ Year 2000 efforts, Microsoft intends to maintain BackOffice SBS version 4.5 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.

Operational Range for Data: 1950 to 2030

There are two aspects of Year 2000 compliance for BackOffice Small Business Server 4.5: compliance of the individual BackOffice Family components in the suite (such as Windows NT Server and SQL Server), and compliance of suite-specific features such as integrated setup and the administrative console.

The suite-specific features of BackOffice Small Business Server 4.5 do not use dates, and are thus Year 2000 Compliant.

The Year 2000 status of the BackOffice Small Business Server 4.5 components is described below. Please see individual Product Guides for each component for additional information:

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 customers’ Year 2000 efforts, Microsoft intends to maintain BackOffice SBS version 4.5 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.

Operational Range for Data: 1950 to 2030

There are two aspects of Year 2000 compliance for BackOffice Small Business Server 4.5: compliance of the individual BackOffice Family components in the suite (such as Windows NT Server and SQL Server), and compliance of suite-specific features such as integrated setup and the administrative console.

The suite-specific features of BackOffice Small Business Server 4.5 do not use dates, and are thus Year 2000 Compliant.

The Year 2000 status of the BackOffice Small Business Server 4.5 components is described below. Please see individual Product Guides for each component for additional information:

  1. Suite Features of BackOffice Server 4.0

Description of how Intranet Starter Site (InetKit) handles dates:

1. Throughout the Intranet Starter Site (InetKit) portion of BackOffice Server 4.0, dates are generated in two ways:

  • System-generated dates from VBScript functions such as Date() and Now().
  • From user input when a user enters a new announcement, event, or expense report. The product accepts both 2- and 4-digit dates. Dates coming from user input are verified with the VBScript function IsDate().

2. The InetKit relies on VBScript to interpret dates. VBScript only interprets 2-digit dates until 2030: When entering dates into the InetKit, two-digit year-end dates will be resolved as listed below.

  • 00 to 29 resolves to 2029
  • 30 to 99 resolves to 1930

3. Dates are stored in SQL Server in the DateTime format, not as strings. SQL Server interprets 2-digit year dates until 2049.

  • 12/12/49 resolves to 2049
  • 12/12/50 resolves to 1950

2-digit shortcut handling:

SQL Server automatically stores dates as 4-digit dates, using the smalldatetime data-type.

Common date usage errors:

Use of dates greater than 2030.

Testing guidelines and recommendations:

Testing for Events, News and Expense Report items within the IntranetKit should include dates beyond 01/01/2000 using both the mm/dd/yy and mm/dd/yyyy formats.

This document applies to both BackOffice 4.5 and BackOffice 4.5 Developer Edition.

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 customers’ Year 2000 efforts, Microsoft intends to maintain BackOffice Server version 4.5 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.

  1. Suite Features of BackOffice Server 4.5

How Intranet Starter Site handles dates:

1. Throughout the Intranet Starter Site (InetKit) portion of BackOffice Server 4.5, dates are generated in two ways:

  • System-generated dates from VBScript functions such as Date() and Now().
  • From user input when a user enters a new announcement, calendar event, or expense report. The product accepts both 2- and 4-digit dates. Dates coming from user input are verified with the VBScript function IsDate().

2. The Intranet Starter Site relies on VBScript to interpret dates. VBScript interprets 2-digit dates until 2030: When entering dates into the InetKit, 2-digit year-end dates will be resolved as listed below.

  • 00-29 resolves to 20xx (2000-2029)
  • 30-99 resolves to 19xx (1930-1999)

3. Dates are stored in SQL Server in the DateTime format, not as strings. SQL Server interprets 2-digit year dates until 2049. 12/12/49 resolves to 2049

  • 12/12/50 resolves to 1950

Two-digit shortcut handling:

SQL Server automatically stores dates as 4-digit dates, using the smalldatetime data-type.

Common date usage errors:

Use of dates greater than 2030.

Testing guidelines and recommendations:

Testing for Calendar, News and Expense Report items within the Intranet Starter Site should include dates beyond 01/01/2000 using both the mm/dd/yy and mm/dd/yyyy formats.

This document applies to both BackOffice 4.5 and BackOffice 4.5 Developer Edition.

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 customers’ Year 2000 efforts, Microsoft intends to maintain BackOffice Server version 4.5 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.
