Thanks Tony, I think the free version of DB2 sound like what I need, shame I could not stay with open source though. My company has not used version control before and I have been trying for two years to perswade them away from the dark side. :) Now I have, I have no budget! So untill convinced by the results it will have to be free all the way. Thanks for a great product by the way. I have used PVCS and SourceSafe in the past and can definatly say I'm glad I was forced into looking for a free alternative. Andy.
