Vmark merged (tookover Unidata) to become Ardent. Ardent bought Prism (I think). Informix tookover Ardent (At least that is what they thought) Informix split DW products off into Ascential and sold DB for 1,000,000,000 USD IIAC Ascential sells to IBM for 1,100,000,000 USD. I wish I had of kept my Vmark shares. Ray D, do you still have yours..... Cheers, Phil ------- u2-users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
