Thanks fine I will take a look eventually. In my opinion ( still hoping orasrp lives again ) it's going to be hard for a product to compete between the fully featured commercial product that Hotsos puts out and the open source and very comprehensive and open source orasrp product.

At the moment orasrp is not supported by was enhanced to work thru 10.2 ... since my site is still working on a 10.2 migration plan that means I have a tool that works ( for free ) for several years.

When I do have time do you want me to send you a quick comparison between your tool and orasrp?

In this newsgroup we have many people that spam by accident from time to time and several repeat offenders that should know better. Received on Mon Nov 27 2006 - 11:41:59 CST
