We don't have the confidence in 6.0 to migrate all of our production databases to 6.0 so we are copying some of our critical databases to the 6.0 instance and testing our apps against 6.0. I went to the Online 6.0 administators class(5 days) and learned alot. 6.0 is a big change from 5.X We have no consultants come on board to help with the installation but we are learning alot on our own that a consultant probably could have taught us quicker. =========================================================================== = Matt Bentley Medicode, Inc.
