SAS Year 2000 Issues

The current realeases of SAS running on Arizona and Windows are Year 2000 compliant. However, it is important that you are aware of how SAS processes dates, particularly if your dates use 2-digit years. Use the YEARCUTOFF= Option in SAS. Currently, the YEARCUTOFF= option is set to 1900 on all systems.
