> > Greetings, > > I recently made an inquiry to my Informix rep about having manuals on-line. The response that I received was not great (i.e. not much customer interest, so why do it). I disagree with this assessment. If you have a shop with more than a few programmers sharing manuals can be a pain, but at about $700 for a full set of Informix On-Line manuals it may not be in the budget to provide everyone with a set. It makes much more sense to me to have manuals on-line and available to everyone. > > I am very interested in your comments pro or con to this argument. If the response is favorable, Informix may produce an on-line set of manuals. > Pro! On-line manuals would contribute a great deal to our productivity! It's a real pain in the butt to only have a couple of sets of manuals on-site, because the one I need seems to be gone when I most need it. Aargh! I think a WWW site with manuals on-line would be ideal. :) :) :) ...But, I'm dreaming, aren't I? Personally, I believe this would add a LOT of value to the product, and cut down on support costs for Informix... -Felix
