Hello all, We are supposed to transfer from AS400 to Oracle mid next year, this I found out about 2-3 months ago, as yet we have not even started looking at doing this so I somehow do not think that goal will be achieved, however going on past experience I do not think that this will stop the management pushing to meet that date, difficult as there is only me and one other to do this and we also are still doing development on the AS400, seems a bit silly to me.

Finding one at under 200% of budget must be even harder. I have been involved with two such conversions, and the last I knew the first conversion petered out, and the seconfd one has redefined its goal to what works right now was what we wanted in the first place" --------------------------------- Booth Martin http://www.martinvt.com --------------------------------- -------Original Message------- From: Midrange Systems Technical Discussion Date: 04/29/05 08:58:26 To: Midrange Systems Technical Discussion Subject: Re: Left AS/400 and Returned Sounds like a potentially nice success story......

Management is rethinking its decision, as the things that were missing on the 400 to prompt the move are now there in the OS. Apparently my preaching has finally reached the right ears.

Looks like we are not only moving the apps to the dotnet world but also our data. Should I be scared silly?? Any horror stories? Thanks - I think.
