(time consuming) mastercard.com:80/set/demo.html Can anyone explain the IDX and SET connection or point me in that direction. Brad talked about SET in an earlier post, the possibilities would seem to put money in our(IDXrs) pockets instead of Mastercards... steve

Thanks Carey, There are new analysts watching this site all the time. I think the links are very important, ever if they are the competition sometimes. I'm sure someone in Randy's group follows the thread, and it may help them keep ahead of the competition. Also, if one of our products is being used or being copied illegally, IDX can track them down. The Barclay Bank thing is very interesting, Vitrex, and Frisco Bay Industries. If we are not dealing with the Frisco Bay people, we ought to be as they are breaking into the Canada Airport market and time and attendance. I may call them and ask whose technology they are using. Also the New Zealand project in Healthcare, called "Hospro-W" looks like a nice program partnering with Fingerscan. The part I liked about that was the mention of windows like interfacing.
