All, This is useful, but not technical. That sounds like the ideal topic for U2-Community. Please continue it there. - Charles Barouch, Moderator --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
Re: [U2] List of MV Database Experts
Maby Kevin's list was pre-Internet, at any rate it didn't even make an indelible mark with the "listees" . An effective list would need to be advertised, on-line and in front of all vendors of MV database/development software and related production, systemic or applications software. Will Colin Jennings wrote: Is there a list of MV experts reachable via the Internet? I am thinking that such list would give name or company name and contact information along with number of years with MV and perhaps flavors as well as applications. This would provide an on-line source for help, especially in geographical areas where that help is sparse. Kevin King had a list somewhere, I can't remember whether it was for MV or SB+ professionals, but I was definitely on it and it raised a few calls - though no money unfortunately!

RE: [U2] List of MV Database Experts
As someone who bought a copy of ABAP/4 programming for the SAP system just to see what it was all about, I can answer a emphatic NO! It's the worst thing I've ever seen in my life. They may be able to make more money, but this is NOT programming as you and I know it. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of will Sent: Thursday, June 14, 2007 08:07 To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] List of MV Database Experts Is there a list of MV experts reachable via the Internet?
