Thanks, that is helpful, and it certainly didn't show up in my google
search! I would assume that DOD is "Department of Defense" for
non-Americans? I will investigate that, thanks.
Oh, and before more people ask me off-list, I have been a member of a list
for a while, and I did check the archives before asking! I also have John
Posada's list that was posted about a month ago. However, I'm looking for
something more database-specific than what has been discussed here
previously. And I do have the book "Software Requirements" by Karl Weigers.
Thank you to all who have responded thus far. I'll make a summary for the
interested in about a week.
Regards,
Dana
