John,
One last point to add to my reply of before. They don't support HP-UX,
actually I don't think they support any Unix.

Our Data Warehouse group uses Cognos PowerPlay to build cubes for
the end users, and Cognos Impromptu for on-line drill-down and
reporting.
IMHO, Cognos writes crappy SQL. The users say they cannot insert
hints, so you have to be ready for almost any kind of query.
It's got a nice GUI, though, they tell me.
Cheers,
Mike

Anybody have any experience with "Cognos"? We've got a bhb that thinks its
the solution for giving every end user access to the raw data
(groan...loudly!)... I've argued every which-a-way against the concept, now
I have to fight the specifics....
HELP!
