Hi ,

What is the use of maintain in WebFOCUS.

Thanks,

K.,

In short...
Maintain enables you to build applications that allow the user to update , delete or insert data.

P.

They did a webcast on that very subject this past Friday. It went in detail about what Maintain was and how you can use it, including example websites that are using it. They usually post those on there Online Seminars page (http://www.informationbuilders.com/events/seminars/arch_sems.html) within a week or two for those who miss it. It's not out there yet, but I would check back from time to time and look at it. Look under the 'Hands-On Technology – Focal Point Web Series' section.

As this was the first Webinar with out MaryEllen, I am not sure it got recorded correctly. If you would like a copy of the presentation, drop me an e-mail at Mark_Derwin@IBI.com and I will be happy to send it to you.

Maintain is both a language and a fully integrated development enviornment for creating Web Applications that can update almost any data source almost anywhere on your enterprise.

Kalyan,

Some of the real power of Maintain (in addition to data manipulation) is the ability to display data and launch WebFOCUS reports (based on that data) from the Maintain screen. You can also use WebFOCUS report output to load specific data into Maintain for further Maintenance/Analysis.

Mark,

Diane Sklar posted the link in another of these forums - unfortuantely I think that it's one a lot of people don't go to

The link for the presentation should be Maintain Presentation
