It seems like you're bending the truth a little bit here. I had a look at this page on the SAP USA Education site:  http://www.sap.com/usa/education/curriculum/course.asp?cid=60051017 for course BC530, and it says perfectly clear (even highlighted in red):




This course is taught by IBM. To Register, please Call 1-800-IBM-TEACH and refer to course code "ES530".

AFAIK, it is part of an agreement between SAP and IBM, where SAP teaches the application stuff and IBM the database related subjects. (I know this to be true for OS390/zOS, not sure about Informix or DB2 on other platforms). Received on Tue Jun 15 2004 - 16:03:40 CDT
