When was Happiness first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 2000, in Netherlands. One of them is World Of Dance WOD 006.

How do I tell if my copy of Happiness is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use WOD 006, PROMO 001, 73 01486) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
