959.9no license availableICS::SSPMFri Mar 14 1997 15:4112
    If you are asking for a license part number, they are no longer
    available.  This product is only being update to keep service
    customers running on the current version on VMS.  A customer can
    purchase service if they do not already have it.  
    
    Because the product has been retired, there is no new SPD available 
    on VTX IR.  There is a copy available on line if you need it however,
    due to system problems I cannot send that to you right now.  If you
    have a need for it, let me know and as soon as the system problem is
    resolved I can send it to you.

Okay - I'm confused then - we have a large (ie: Corporate) customer who has 
many older VAXstations on which they need to continue to run VWS. They are 
under maintenance.... do they just wait for it to show up on the next 
CONDIST to get the new version ???

Thanks

959.11need update serviceICS::SSPMMon Mar 24 1997 07:2023
    Arlan,
    
    It is not on CONDIST, in fact it is not even available on CDROM.
    
    If the customer is already a service customer they should have received
    the 
    latest version when it updated.  If they are not currently a service
    customer 
    they would have to purchase service to receive the update.  
    
    When you say they are under maintenance, I'm not sure what that means. 
    It
    sound like a hardware contract to me, which has nothing to do with the 
    service for their software.  So if that is the case, then they need to 
    purchase software services which will entitle them to updates. 
    
    If this is still not clear, please call me at 276-8143 and I will try
    to help you.  
    
    Thanks,
    Diane
