DATA WAREHOUSE RESEARCH OPPORTUNITY

Does your organization use a data warehouse?  Are you interested in
participating in a study of data warehouses?  In return for your
participation, YOU WILL RECEIVE A COPY OF THE STUDY RESULTS.

I am a computer science student at the University of North Carolina at
Asheville.  I am conducting a research project on the success of data
warehouses.  I hope to identify data warehouses that are successful and
what makes them a success.

Printed below this message is a brief questionnaire.  Please take a few
minutes to answer the following questions on your organizations data
warehouse.  Your name and the name of your organization will be kept
