Joel,

We probably could help you. The MRP output data lives in an ASCII file on
the 3000. The data is a little convoluted. There are several record types
all stuffed into a single record structure, similar to mfg. transaction and
the CRP data. We have written code to turn the data into a user-friendly
format.  We have field consultants that could also help you to get the ODBC
set up and configured.

If you have questions feel free to give me a call and maybe I can help you
out.

Regards,
-Steve
