Conrad,

I am a little confused as to which platform release we fall into. We are
currently using Powerhouse on an Alpha OpenVMS platform. We are purchasing
another Alpha box with Unix that we will use for Web development using Oracle.

1. Will we be able to convert our existing Powerhouse code to Powerhouse
Web? If so, what, if any additional software will we need (some sort of
translation software?) So, can we convert our existing Powerhouse programs
to Powerhouse Web on the OpenVMS platform and then migrate to the Unix
Oracle server?

2. What release of Powerhouse Web will we fall into. I hope its not the
last one, 'depending on customer demand'.
