Dear Mr Donald

It is not possible to archive data from SQL and Exchange.

I hasn´t hear anything about that IBM will make this feature possible.

Old SQL data and old Excahnge data is useless. the only reason for you to
use this kind of data is perhaps
that 2 years from now you would like to know how your databases looked like
in 2002.

I think Oracle has a interface that creates a snapshot of your database,
oracle then dumps the data to files.

Im not enugh database guru to know this in depth but perhaps microsoft has a
utility like this one.

I think that is the way the vendors want you to do it.

hope this helps :)
