Dawn, Our EDI translator software can include a test account on the production system at no additional charge. This ensures that the same programs used to process the test data are also used to process the live data. This is safer than processing your test data on one system and your production data on another, unless you replace the software on the backup system with your production software every time any change is made to your production software. I am not aware of any reduction in license fee offered by Microsoft for a "backup" copy of NT or W2K (for example). On the other hand, our database vendor offers a backup copy of the database, for use on a backup system, for 15% (85% discount) of the normal database license fee. We also offer a backup copy of our EDI translator, for use on a backup system, for 15% (85% discount) of the normal license fee. Hope this helps, Dave Taylor Sysmark Information Systems, Inc. 800-SYSMARK (800-797-6275) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dawn Field" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, November 01, 2000 1:04 PM Subject: Premenos/Harbinger/Peregrine test and disaster recovery environment Question > Hi All! > We have upgraded our production environment from the CISC version of > EDI400 in June to the RISC version.
