Thanks Simon, yes GPMC is a very good tool but unfortunately doesn't offer
what I'm after. I need some way of maintaining the configuration data. Ie if
a policy object is updates say 6 times in a year and we increment the version
numbers, eg v0.05 to v0.06 to v0.07 etc.... How do I best maintain the
differences between versions. I've tried this on an spread*** but it gets
unmanagable

Craig

ps I still use GPMC foradministration.
