All,

[Quoted] [Quoted] I have no experience with Oracle 9i, however I'm trying to assist another group at work track changes to Oracle 9i Reports in CVS. I'm looking for someone to share suggestions on approaches that have worked for them. As it stands right now, the exported files have the extension ".RDF" and are in a binary format. While this can be stored in CVS, it is not very efficient (i.e. each rev is a new copy, change diff between versions, etc). Can Oracle Reports export to standard text files?

The platforms in use are: Windows XP and IBM AIX (which holds the CVS repository). The CVS standbox can either be on Windows (we'll use TortoiseCVS) or via copying (scp or ftp) on AIX with the normal CVS client.

I'll reply to this post with my findings, however your input is appreciated.

Kind regards,
