    I think ApexSQL is finally realizing the benefit of working more closely with the SQL Sever community. This is great news.

    If their software would use SQL Server as data storage there might be a chance.

    I have sent out an email to all those winners, ApexSQL should be contacting you directly within a week or so with the details on how to collect.

    Hi Folks, I think ApexSQL should be sending out emails this week. I will check with Brian in a couple of days, but they did have a 100 licenses to issue so I'll be a bit patient.<br /><br />I'm hoping to line up Samsung to give a few 50" Plasmas away, but it might be a tough sell <img src='/community/emoticons/emotion-5.gif' alt=';)' /><br /><br />

    All,

    I believe all 100 emails have been sent out. We have heard back from a most people but not all.

    If you *haven't* heard from ApexSQL and are on this list pls send an email to service@apexsql.com and we'll get it squared away.

    pls stay tuned for some new releases. A major new version of ApexSQL Edit is due out in a week or two (totally overhauled source control is the biggest update here).

    We have a major new version of ApexSQL Doc that should be out probably < 90 days with SSIS documentation.

    Also some new totally tools will be coming out soon.

    any feedback on our forum about these tools is very welcome. We'll promise fast responses to all queries.

    as an update ...

    i haven't gotten any emails saying "I haven't gotten prize" - I get all emails to service@apexsql.com so not sure what's up

    techbabu303
    Madhivanan
    and any potential others ...

    pls try again. Maybe email is caught in our spam folder - not sure. You can contact Jude directly though - I get his emails.

    if there is ANYONE who HASN'T gotten their keys yet - pls let Jude know and we'll get them to you by hook or by crook.
