Doug,

This is the MAIN functionality that we bought this product for.

WHY... well, we allow the user to modify the database so that they can customize the system. We need a tool to do it to allow for the data dictionary to stay updated. In our 2.6 product, we wrote the tool, but everyone told use to go with SDT this time.

So, are you saying I have to write my own front end to the data dictionary?

This is bad news.

BOb

What would be the royality to ship the explorer in/with the ap?
