A Year 2000 Compliant Application passing date data to a Year 2000 Compliant Source using the TWAIN Specification will not produce errors processing date data in connection with the year change from December 31, 1999 to January 1, 2000, when adhering to the TWAIN Specification for the passing of date data, or when using any TWAIN Source Manager with a version of 1.6.0.1 or higher. The same applies to TWAIN Thunker.

A Year 2000 Compliant Source passing date data to a Year 2000 Compliant Application using the TWAIN Specification will not produce errors processing date data in connection with the year change from December 31, 1999 to January 1, 2000, when adhering to the TWAIN Specification for the passing of date data, or when using any TWAIN Source Manager with a version of 1.6.0.1 or higher. The same applies to TWAIN Thunker.

Neither the TWAIN Specification nor the TWAIN Source Manager process (interpret) date data, they only pass uninterpreted data between the Application and the Source, or the Source and the Application; therefore neither the TWAIN Specification nor any version of the TWAIN Source Manager will affect the recognition of the Year 2000 as a leap year. The same applies to TWAIN Thunker.

DISCLAIMER: The Compliance Statement refers to the TWAIN Source Manager as delivered by the TWAIN Working Group. This Compliance Statement addresses only the passing of date data between sources and applications using the TWAIN Specification. Please refer to the Microsoft Year 2000 Compliance Statement for information that includes coverage of TWAIN Source Managers delivered by Microsoft in their products. The same applies to TWAIN Thunker.
