Hi Juan

Sorry, just repost it with the correct subject!

My advice to solve this problem...

AFAIK at the end of 1999, when I started using event 10046, there was no =
=3D Hotsos Profiler. Therefore I developed my own tool to analyze =
extended =3D SQL trace files. It's name is TVD$XTAT. As a consultant I'm =
not =3D interested to sell software... therefore the tool was always =
free of =3D charge. Now, the current version is 2.5 years old and, =
therefore, not =3D usable for Cary's methodology, i.e. method R (it was, =
more or less, a =3D GUI product to replace TKPROF). Anyway, right now =
I'm working hard on =3D the new version 4.0. Of course it will support =
method R... therefore, in =3D my opinion, you don't need to spend money =
if you can wait a couple of =3D weeks (in one month it will be =
available, at least in beta, in fact I'll =3D give a series of seminars =
in Switzerland and Germany where I'll show =3D it!).

Interested? Just send me an email...

Have fun
Chris
