I would like to see the tooltime team members test out some of the new
functions and take a look at the enclosed data updates.  Comments you have
would help with the Tuesday pm testing.

To get it started, here are some comments:

-  The history and summary search (invoked from the HelpDesk pulls down menu)
   seems to be working well.  I was able to get good results back from my
   queries (thanks to Brett and Lynne for getting this to work).

-  There are 135 netinstall records.  Testing has mixed results.  In one case
   (record 51127), I received a "unique contraint" when I tried to save an
   update to the database.

   Is it possible that we have not tested existing records from Filemaker with
   the netinstall save. ?? - or there is some other problem with the data ?

-  Some Filemaker records return error messages (e.g. bad hardware name, etc.).
   If we identify these errors, we could make a few data changes to reduce
   the problems.  Note:  There are 837 log records from Filemaker.

-  New software items (278 records) were loaded - check it out

-  New os (110 records) were loaded - check it out

-  Sequence numbers for new records now start at 100,000.  You may want
   to generate a few records in this new range.

Prior to testing, the only action item I have left is to update the
warehouse file within Scopus/Oracle.
