I know we have some DB2 peps on the list, I'm trying to get my company to switch from M$ $ql $erver to DB2 on linux. If anyone would be willing to do a demo of DB2 for my company, main area needing info is on how to handle large db/tables and query them quickly. We have some tables with millions of rows, and need to keep retrieval down in the low secs. Sql Server can do this, but not very many query's at the same time. Email or phone me if interested. -Bill Bill Cavalieri bcavalieri@gekl.net VP IT Systems 816 880 0066
