We are aware of the thesaurus product for BRS/Search, but for a new
project would like to investigate the availability of other possible
thesaurus building products and manipulation tools, in the VMS
environment and compatible with BRS/Search (public domain/shareware,
preferably, but commercial too).

Has anyone constructed a thesaurus for use with BRS/Search?  What were
your experiences with BRS's own products or any others?  Has anyone
constructed a medically-oriented thesaurus for this environment?

Thanks for your consideration.
