We used Rekall some time ago as an ETL interface for a PostgresQL db. I must admit I did not do the work myself. However the guy that got me the data turned it around in a couple of hours (128Mb flat data formatted as we requested) and I dont think he was a superguru. After we massaged the data (remove dups & inactive accounts, standardise NAD format, restructure into a relationship between client/account) we returned them about 67Mb to reload which he did while we were chatting about operational data quality - about 30 min. So in terms of doing things of that nature quickly it looked good from a short distance. B I keep looking at Rekall, which I was introduced to by others in this forum. It was produced by the Kompany, http://www.thekompany.com/products/rekall/ But has no gone mostly GPL, http://www.totalrekall.co.uk/index.php http://www.rekallrevealed.org/ Have you had any experience with this front end? -Ken
