[Macpartners] BrioQuery Version 6 Release for Windows and the Macintosh

[Mary Weisse]

Greetings,

MIT Information Systems is pleased to announce the release and support of 
BrioQuery 6 Software.


What is BrioQuery 6 Software?
------------------------------
BrioQuery is a reporting tool that allows you to access data in SQL 
databases (such as the MIT Data Warehouse) for analysis, decision-making, 
reporting, and other purposes.


Who Should Download and Why?
------------------------------
BrioQuery 6.6.1.9 software for Windows requires a version newer than Oracle 
7 Client. You can download and install MIT Oracle 9i Client for windows. 
Make sure you uninstall older version of Oracle 7 Client first, and then 
install Oracle 9i Client.

BrioQuery 6.2.3.7 software for Macintosh still uses MIT Oracle 7 Client 
middleware and no additional Oracle Client installation is need.

IS has compiled and published an Oracle two-tiered application matrix 
listing applications at MIT that use Oracle. Check the matrix to see what 
version of the Oracle server and client, and what components of the client, 
your application needs.

  ------------------------------
BrioQuery 6 features a new interface, introduces new reporting 
capabilities, has eliminated the Detail report, and changed to JavaScript 
for computed items.


Known Issues
-------------
Installing Oracle 9i Client on top of existing Oracle 7 Client is not 
supported on Windows desktops. Oracle 7 must be uninstalled first.
