Thanks Jeremy. I don't think that this is really for a CMS system rather
for an on-line manual (IETM's Interactive Electronic Technical Manuals).
But I agree with your point regarding the database searches.
As for the location of the data, from what I understand its going to be
on the corporate servers and local hard drives.
