It's not a computer industry acronym - at least not a common one Explanation: You're probably right to leave it as is; but as far as I can tell, it's not a computer industry or telecom industry acronym. I checked quite a number of sources and references, and came up with zip - zilch - double goose eggs. If you can, you might wish to check with your client and find out what WOR stands for. Sorry I can't be of more help. |

WOR could it be VOR? Explanation: VOR's are used for radio signal etc. transmissions. It would be the same abbreviation in German (Very high frequency omnidirectional . . . )?? Could not find WOR anywhere. Good luck, Lis AIP |

WorNet AG, DAS INTRANET SYSTEMHAUS (?) Explanation: Acronyms are the hardest thing to trackdoen and I second uel. --- However, there is a company whose URLs, company name, products and services are so close to your subject, context and acronym that it just MIGHT be what WOR stands for (correctly spelled/capitalized? incorrectly?).
