Mark Bixby "Perl Programming on MPE/iX", Rich Trap "Cool UNIX Utilities on MPE", ...).
Jeff Kubler of Kubler Consulting
presented a session
on Suprtool at this year's HPWorld conference in Chicago,
"Super Suprtool Solutions":
Suprtool is one of the most prevalant database extraction tools in the MPE world.
Virtually every application, from legacy applications to the new e-commerce
applications, will have some use for Suprtool. A clear understanding of its use
and capabilities is a key concept in any developer's technical bag of tricks. In addition,
there are a number of great solutions to some of the trickiest problems with
database or file extraction, and updating that will be covered in the presentation
of the paper should help any developer increase productivity.

P.S. Comment from a past attendee: "Prior to receiving Suprtool training
from Jeff Kubler, I had to rely upon our
programming staff to find data and build test data environments. This was
time consuming because I often had to wait for their availability. The
Suprtool training has been invaluable because now I can perform these tasks
myself. This has made me much more efficient and effective. I would
recommend this Suprtool training to anyone who needs to access data and
needs to become quickly familiar with IMAGE and the Suprtool." -
Juliann Meitzler, Rodale Press.
