I would like to pass on my experience with SQR and the Oracle V7 Developers
Release. After going through the trauma of installing V7, SQR linked withi
no troubles whatsoever. The only problem I have encountered with it thus
far is when running the EXPORT.SQR program, since the datatypes it looks
for are hardcoded. This is any easy fix for anybody. I'd like to point
out that SQL*TextRetrieval 2.0 Beta has not yet linked correctly to V7
at my site. And having suffered through two years of a beast called
SQL*ReportWriter...but I digress. SQR works just dandy with V7.
Cheers.
