Let me clarify that immediately. I did not mean that I would look at the MXG code and transliterate it into Java. That would be, at least, copyright infringement. And I'm really sensitive to that (being a FOSS bigot). I was meaning to download the SMF data to __something__, likely Intel, then processing it there using a language such as Java. I would most likely try to store the data in some sort of a relational database. But I'd likely need to get a few of those new WD 2Tb disk drives to store it! <grin> OK, I think that I'll just mark this idea as "way to crazy to try." -- John ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
