I was a Y2K consultant. Scanned thousands of lines of code (COBOL and others). Since the group I was with was considered "Management" (Business System Analysts and above are management), we were not allowed to make any code modifications. Not even the simple ones, such as changing the year from PIC x(2) to PIC x(4). We found many other code problems in addition to the Y2K potential problems. We could only highlight Y2K potential problems and return the code to the programmers for correction (we would then receive the program for reevaluation). We were not allowed to identify nor mention the other problems. Union regulations....
