My $0,02c: If Microsoft doesn't do it, someone else will and will start selling licenses/units using that as a sales argument. Most admins that I work with barely have the knowledge to configure ISA, I can't even wonder when they'll customize it to their own needs! I'd like see ISA as the popular and easy-to-use product like any other Microsoft product, which is what I like the most when it comes to ease of use.

Enterprise level applications rarely give you what you want before you know to ask for it... In general, Enterprise-level admins know what they want and need from an application before they buy it. It's the hobbyist or "push-button" admins that end up needing hand-holding weirdzards. ..but that's just my opinion... -------------------------------------------- Jim Harrison MCP(NT4, W2K), A+, Network+, PCG http://isaserver.org/Jim_Harrison/ http://isatools.org Read the help / books / articles! -------------------------------------------- -----Original Message----- From: Greg Mulholland [mailto:greg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, February 09, 2006 6:49 PM To: [ISAserver.org Discussion List] Subject: [isalist] RE: feature request http://www.ISAserver.org Sorry Jim you are right. I kind forgot about the export import stuff :) my bad but as far as the sql stuff I know plenty of TransactSQL, more than enough to do what I want (And that is exactly what I did), but a) I want the query in real time, not having to rerun it manually - and b) I want the application to give me the tools I need to manage it. I don't think its an appropriate position for an enterprise level product that you should have to write your own SQL queries to do something very simple which they almost got right, but not quite.. (And your stuffed if you are writing to a flat file.)

When was the last time you actually looked at the UI? "Save query" is part of the current feature set... ------------------------------------------------------- Jim Harrison MCP(NT4, W2K), A+, Network+, PCG http://isaserver.org/Jim_Harrison/ http://isatools.org Read the help / books / articles! -------------------------------------------------------
