Hi Michael, I'm fairly aware of how the Remedy API works, since I'm the one who contributed back the code to make it compile with the V6 API, and also the ability to compile against the encryption libraries. I'm not quite sure where you are getting your information about V7, however, because so far in our communications with remedy, they indicate that *all* our user clients will have to be upgraded to the v7 user client, among other things, which would appear to indicate that the V7 api is not backwards compatible. In any case, as it appears no one else has gotten to V7 yet, and Stanford has started a project to migrate to V7, I expect that one of my co workers or I will be contributing the V7 API code back too. ;) --Quanah -- Quanah Gibson-Mount Principal Software Developer ITS/Shared Application Services Stanford University GnuPG Public Key: http://www.stanford.edu/~quanah/pgp.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
