Fred, I am not technically competent enough to answer your question and it is too bad that some of the tech folks have not posted here recently. But I do believe this product directly competes with what you are talking about and will be chosen by some companies as more suitable or what they need today...others may continue to work with other systems more suitable to what you are referring to--engineering & product design workflow. But don't sell Livelink short...just look at the clients, HWP, Motorola, Siemens, Newbridge...Livelink has a lot of capabilities but the best thing would be to check out the interactive demo at OTEXF's web site...or to contact the co. directly.

If engineers are sharing info regarding designs etc. it is feasible that things will migrate from older proprietary (albeit sophisticated) models, to more contemporary open standards...presumably many docs. & plans can be converted to a common format more suitable to sharing via an Intranet or the web...hence Livelink may have room for considerable growth!

My technical knowledge is not great & I would welcome a tutorial from anyone who knows more.
