Re: Ordering RDp 8.5

[MichaelQuigley@xxxxxxxxxx]

You probably want D0C5FLL for $913 retail.  Our business partner just 
quoted us the price for the trade up license from ADTS (PDM, SEU, etc.) 
for substantial discount.  I don't recall the exact price or what product 
code was used.  The discounted trade up price is only available if they 
can get it ordered for you via Passport Advantage.  I've downloaded the 
trial and am awaiting the processing of the order so that I can apply the 
license.

We're also still on V5R4 for now.  I've been using WDSc without too many 
issues.  But there are some odd behaviors that I would open a PMR on if it 
were still under support.  So far I've been very pleased with most of the 
differences between WDSc and RDp.  RDp is substantially faster.  It also 
includes the screen designer and report designer built-in.
