True, but some of the most time-consuming tasks that a developer has to do have nothing to do with writing lines of code. Any tool that helps a developer manage the myriads of data sets, DB2 tables etc required in a complex test environment, provides a major time savings. The developer can use this time to perform more test cycles, which should result in a better product. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
