My experience with CA's software has been somewhat limited, and it was 
not with any of their Workload Automation tools, so it would be 
difficult for me to comment.   Also, I don't believe they have a free 
version, so I doubt we are going to go down that road at this time.  But 
thanks for the suggestion.
