I must be missing something but.... doesn't "3rd party vendor name" just take up the slot used by "assigned to employee name" within your current control system? This is, if the "Completed" box is not checked on your change control log, does it really make a difference for followup purpose if the name on that line is "John" or "Susie" (your employees) or "Tal Systems Inc." (outside vendor)? Michael C. Mattias Tal Systems Inc. Racine WI [email protected] ------------------------------------ ...
