From my experience that is true for 90% of all software projects.
Only documentation ranks lower. But using every spanking new
unproven technology (especially in Microsoft only shops) ranks very
high. And some things just don't want to go away. Yesterday my
former employer asked me a question about a DCOM based
client/server app that we made years ago. DCOM sucks!
But back to the original issue, while radical, but how plausible
would it be to ditch that code and write new? As long as you know
what needs to go where in the database replacing that portion could
be done. It may even be faster than to figure out what the old code
does, why it is broken, and how to fix it.
