While there are certainly exceptions, a fairly large percentage of inquiry programs are really little more than clones, whereas most of the really heavy business logic is very unique. Price lookup is a far cry from finite forward scheduling, which in turn is a different beast than cost rollup. The number of truly unique lines of code in a typical inquiry is far lower on a percentage basis than the same amount of core business logic. This of course is simply my experience, based on my work primarily with ERP systems such as CAFRS, MAPICS, PRMS and BPCS. Joe
