   I really do not know.  I am using the first fix, which is a replacement   
   for the exe file.  I don't even know if the OS/2 version had the Y2K   
   problem, nor whether or not the second fix (my bwrepfix, which is really   
   a bandaid) would work if it did.  What that fix does is to put a batch   
   file around the Bwave program to intercept the call to packing up the   
   REP file and repair the defective file.
