Elektronischer Teile Katalog oder Elektronischer Teilekatalog?

There seems to have been a bit of an edit war going on here recently over whether Teilekatalog is one word or two (among other things!). I suggest we should defer to a reasonably authoritative source for this, if one can be found, but in the meantime, googling German webpages gives 167 "most relevant" hits for "Teilekatalog" [1] and only 36 for "Teile Katalog" [2].

Nonetheless, Compoundnouns ( ;) ) are written as one word in German, so Teilekatalog would be correct. Kar98 (talk) 00:32, 8 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"Programme"?

I don't think "programme" is really the word to use to describe ETKA, for two reasons: (a) "programme" is generally spelled "program" (yes, even in the UK) when used in the sense of "computer program", and (b) to describe ETKA as a program is an oversimplification, as it is a combination of client-server software, database and online service. Letdorf (talk) 20:29, 18 November 2009 (UTC).[reply]

I'll gladly defer to your better knowledge of the correct terminology in that respect :-) All I was trying to establish is that ETKA is currently being used and supported in three different "evolutions" of the basic backbone "program", and ETKA call these "Revision"s (7.0, 7.1, and 7.2). And these three current evolutions or "Revision"s are updated nigh-on every other day with what ETKA call "Update"s. These Updates are not interchangable between the three current Revisions (an Update released for Revision 7.0 will not work on Revision 7.1 or 7.2). And these "Update"s contain databases which are installed on the local machine. Furthermore, ETKA can function as a pure stand-alone programme, and can will have all part numbers stored on the local PC. Anyway, perhaps you can word those points better than I can.

VIDA

The dealership EPC for Volvo (VIDA) is not produced by LexCom. A quick Google search suggests that it is produced by Volvo Car USA, LLC that sponsors The Volvo Technical and Owner Bookstore and they develop VIDA, but I am not so sure about the latter.
