DAW Jun 20, 2019

This book is comprehensive but clearly designed for business users who have their systems set up by an IT manager. It focuses on data sharing in an established installation. The key word in the title is "COLLABORATION".It provides minimal support for setting up a new system. I was in the computer systems business for many years but this book was of little use to me.
