To all Focal Pointers,

I am sad to say that I will be departing from Information Builders as of Friday, October 11th. I passed certification exam in IT Auditing, which is a completely different field, and landed a position doing exactly that. It has been great working with everyone for the last 9 years. I have learned so much and enjoyed my time at Information Builders and working with such wonderful customers.

Kathleen Butler will continue to manage Focal Point, and Kathryn Henning will continue to moderate. Any questions/comments/suggestions, please forward to their attention.

Thank you all, I wish you all the best and success. I may swing in once a while to say hello to all, so don’t be too surprised. I have to update my signature first. Smiler

Cheers,
Kerry

Kerry,

Lots of luck in your new job.
Interesting: my first job was, what was called at the time, EDP Auditing! And from there to FOCUS. Our first cutomer was a bank who used FOCUS exactly for that.
Now, if you need a few pointers...
