What! Can this be true! The secret to the success of the SAP programs is
the COmon Business Oriented Langugae of the 1960's!
Is this why they call their users group SAPS?

As someone who bought a copy of ABAP/4 programming for the SAP system
just
to see what it was all about, I can answer a emphatic NO! It's the
worst
thing I've ever seen in my life. They may be able to make more money,
but
this is NOT programming as you and I know it.

Subject: [U2] List of MV Database Experts
Is there a list of MV experts reachable via the Internet?
I am thinking that such list would give name or company name and
contact
information along with number of years with MV and perhaps flavors
as
well
as applications. This would provide an on-line source for help,
especially
in geographical areas where that help is sparse.
If the number of MV users in rising as indicated in some of the
messages
on
this list, we might all gain new business. If the reverse is true,
then
we
can see that it is time to jump ship and learn SAP (Are the Germans
winning
the software wars?).
Such a list of course raises the fear that employers will see
the
competition between us and try to drive down consulting fees and
wages
(can
they get any lower?). However, I think that the difficulties
managing
off-shore programming and poor quality may have taught some of the
employers
a bitter lesson as to what "cheap" really means. Of course there
will
always be those whose attitude is similar to the man with a brain
tumor
who
found a "certified" surgeon who would remove it for $29.95/hour
including
travel time.
Comments are invited directly and I will report them to all
