This offer applies to applications written in COBOL, CA-Ideal, CA-Telon, CA-ADS and CSP/ESF (other languages and date field expansion solutions may take slightly longer).

Complete/2000 provides full assessment and renovation capabilities for multiple languages in a wide variety of standards and environments. This industrial strength product facilitates the Migration of application systems into the 21st century at the lowest cost and risk available for client software.

• Mainframe Languages: COBOL (all varieties), CA-ADS, CA-Easytrieve, CA-Ideal, CA-Telon, CSP/ESF, IMSADF II, MetaCOBOL, and PL/I.
• AS/400: COBOL
• Client Server: C/C++, PowerBuilder and COBOL (all varieties).

Because Complete/2000 supports a wide variety of platforms and languages, Forecross is able to assist organizations both in the U.S. and internationally, in a variety of industries, in government and in education. Forecross works directly with end-user organizations and with a number of Business Partners who can provide renovation of other languages, testing automation and quality project oversight capabilities.

• Complete/2000 is proven, time-tested technology based on years of experience automating the Migration of complex applications, languages, and databases starting prior to the formation of Forecross in 1982.

• You can enjoy a comfort level that this code has been refined through extensive use — it’s not a product that was invented overnight just to address Y2K problems (and perhaps missing the nuances of a given language or database)

• Complete/2000 uses a rapid, fully automated analysis and renovation process.

• This reduces the time your application is out of your shop — increasing the control you have of your project and reducing the time your application is "frozen"
• Full automation increases accuracy and consistency of the renovated code (manual or partially manual approaches result in inconsistent results)
• Full automation speeds up testing since your application is delivered in a thoroughly consistent manner
• Full automation allows for rapid error identification and correction — find it one place, fix it everywhere.

• Complete/2000 minimizes the need for skilled resources through increased automation

• You can allocate your skilled resources to the critical jobs of reviewing the results of renovation instead of performing the tedious tasks of finding, fixing and then finally testing.

• Complete/2000 supports a wide variety of languages and platforms (see previous list)

• This means you can attack the Y2K problem throughout your company with a consistent process. Most companies have at least three languages in use — why have three different approaches?

• The Complete/2000 production facility is manned by a staff skilled in the use of our products.

• You don’t need to spend time and resources learning to use a tool for "one time use." The Complete/2000 Factory quickly gets you to the point where you have your renovated code back — no wasted learning curve.

• Forecross Rules Engineers develop new rules for unusual coding issues instead of manually modifying your code.

• 100% automation means your application could be fully re-renovated and you would get the exact same results. If you found a major problem area in your application, a new rule would be added and your total application re-renovated without worry of "did we get those manual changes added back in?"

• Complete/2000 can combine renovation approaches like data field expansion and windowing (fixed, sliding, date adjustment). See our white paper on Data Expansion.

• Although the Y2K community now believes that full data expansion is not the best alternative, with Complete/2000 you can select the combination of renovation approaches that best fit your needs — utilizing data expansion when it is absolutely necessary and using the less complex windowing approach for most date fields.

• Complete/2000 uses a variety of date field identification techniques like "buddy" analysis which identifies fields used in conjunction with other fields known to contain date information.

• This minimizes the risk of missing one of your critical date fields. It speeds up testing.
