Re: User Vision

["Andrew Gaskin" <gemstone.solutions@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jeffrey,

Access always makes me nervous:  I don't have a good sense that someone is
in control or that the system is really secure or able to support multiple
users. It seems the main benefit is that it is cheap.

There are many more useful query/reporting tools on the market.  Personally,
I've been using BusinessObjects and I have not found any occasions where I
would need to drop back to, say, RPG to get exactly what I want.

I've been considering creating a set of generic BusinessObjects meta data
(universe) files and maybe some reports and making these available to the
list.  Any one out there interested?
