You are selling a product that you claim is cross platform. You also claim that this product will connect to RDBMS. You charge the same price for all platforms yet the Strongets platform will not do SQL or ODBC! and you expect existing WebCat 3 customers to pay a fee to upgrade. I was just about to order some more copies of WebCatalog to talk to Oracle, not knowing that it cannot under Unix. Do you have any plans to Introduc an Oracle or indeed any RDBMS driver? Or will this be left to vague Third Partys to develop.------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
