News from Mertech
Flex2SQL driver released
Mertech have announced the release of ORAFlex 8, now called Flex2SQL for Oracle v.8. This offers very significant improvement in performance over the current released version, plus many new features. Flex2SQL for Oracle v8 will support only Oracle versions 9i and above.
MS SQL Server 2000 SP4
Significant changes by Microsoft in MS SQL Server 2000 SP4 will require a new Mertech SQLFlex driver. Microsoft had issued several warnings relating to SP4, but Mertech say their new driver resolves all known issues. It is recommended that you do not install SP4 without updating the SQLFlex driver as this will result in performance issues. For more information visit www.mertechdata.com
Business Intelligence Seminar
A sunny afternoon on the banks of the Thames was an idyllic setting for our successful Business Intelligence Seminar where we demonstrated Dynamic AI to a discerning audience. Dynamic AI is a browser based reporting tool that can collate information from various disparate database sources such as DB2, MS SQL and even Excel spreadsheets. In business we have been gathering information for years, but now we can access this information in a meaningful way in real time. We shall be holding another seminar on 11th October, but if you would like more information on Dynamic AI now please call us on 0118 988 8709.
