- I would like to pass on my experience with SQR and the Oracle V7 Developers
- Release. After going through the trauma of installing V7, SQR linked withi
- no troubles whatsoever. The only problem I have encountered with it thus
- far is when running the EXPORT.SQR program, since the datatypes it looks
- for are hardcoded. This is any easy fix for anybody. I'd like to point
- out that SQL*TextRetrieval 2.0 Beta has not yet linked correctly to V7
- at my site. And having suffered through two years of a beast called
- SQL*ReportWriter...but I digress. SQR works just dandy with V7.

- Cheers.
