Nolene, you might want to check with the Gimmal Group on the current
capabilities of sharepoint. Perhaps ask for a personal demo of records
center indexing, checkin, checkout, tracking, applying retention policy to &
automated destruction notices for stored boxes, etc. features.
I hate paper..., but I love information management. I like seeing the
progress our profession is making on managing information electronic from
cradle to grave.
Best regards, Steve
