Most of the learned gentlemen and ladies who regularly interact with the BPCS-L database will have an understanding of the BPCS database certainly to the levels detailed below, ie. what is the order file and the order number field is blah blah blah.
 
If enough people want it, I will develop a source analysis tool and freely distribute it to all those subscribing to this list, by a show of hands.  I'm only going to do this once so if there are any preferences to what should be included in this tool then drop me mail via the forum.  Closing date for requests will be this Sunday at midnight GMT. 
 
I will then try to deliver by the end of the week.
