Oliver, you've hit the exact problem - there is a need to have access to data for ad hoc reporting, by qualified persons. I don't know the other products as well as ours, so I will only say that we have a mechanism that controls access on a group profile-like concept. Setup is quite simple - simpler than some of the others, I believe. We think of it as not only closing down access but also opening up access in a safe manner to those who should have it.

Sorry for the commercial - I hope this is a direct response to a member's question.

Trials are available - check out our site at <www.centerfieldtechnology.com> or call 507.287.8119

Any of the tools are probably cost-effective over the time to create your own - depends on your workload, obviously.

How do you handle query access, then?

We have lots of user queries and CAX-downloads and all that stuff. How
complicated
does setting up and maintaining these security tools get?

So, without exit-point programming or buying some security product, I
cannot fix these
loopholes? Thanks a lot, IBM..

Thanks,

Oliver
