LOGIC WORKS AND PRISM SOLUTIONS PARTNER FOR SEAMLESS INTEGRATION OF A
SINGLE META DATA WAREHOUSE

Partnership Enables Users to Link and Share Meta Data

PRINCETON, NJ, September 18, 1995 -- Logic Works, Inc. and Prism Solutions,
Inc. today announced an integrated warehouse meta data solution that
provides a direct link between Prism Directory Manager 2.0 and Logic
Works' ERwin/ERX, enabling customers to share information for more
effective data warehouse access and administration.

Logic Works' ERwin/ERX is a powerful, easy-to-use application modeling tool
that quickly and easily designs client/server database applications. ERwin
forward- and reverse-engineers databases and generates SQL schema,
triggers and stored procedures for leading SQL databases and most popular
desktop databases. With the direct link between Prism Directory Manager
2.0 and ERwin, users can now reverse-engineer legacy SQL into ERwin,
import ERwin data definitions into Prism's Information Directory, and use
Prism Directory Manager to better understand legacy data sources in the
data warehouse.

Prism Directory Manager 2.0 is a new release of Prism's data warehouse
management software that enables users to seamlessly integrate meta data
from key software components used in a data warehouse, including
development tools, CASE tools, query products, and data analysis tools. By
providing a direct link to a common layer of consistent and accurate meta
data, Prism Directory Manager 2.0 simplifies the population of warehouse
meta data and enables users to exchange meta data, greatly reducing the
amount of data entry and manual administration associated with managing a
data warehouse.

"The business relationship between Prism and Logic Works allows customers
to visualize the legacy and data warehouse models, using the powerful,
intuitive, and graphical capabilities of ERwin," said Logic Works Vice
President of Business Development, Barbara Bogart. "With this single
source of meta data, customers now have a fully integrated solution."
