APPX Software, Inc. has prepared several documents to assist our customers with their preparations for the Year 2000. Below are links to these documents for you to review. If you have any questions concerning these or any other Y2K issues, please contact us at info@appx.com or 1-800-TRY-APPX.

APPX

Release 3.4.1 is considered to be the earliest version of APPX to address the Y2K issues. Our most current release is 4.0.9. APPX Software recommends that any customers concerned with these issues upgrade to the our most current release.

Speed II

Speed II customers must upgrade both their Speed II and the Wang operating system for Y2K compliance. Release 7.2 of Speed II is the earliest release supported by APPX Software for Y2K issues. Our most current release is 7.3.2. Your Wang operating system must also be upgraded to release 7.53. NOTE: Releases of Speed II prior to 7.0 are not compatible with release 7.53 of the Wang operating system. Speed II must be upgraded prior to the operating system to prevent an interruption due to this difference.
