I've missed the original post to this thread, but I just want to add my 2
Drachmas worth to this reply. We are currently investigating the Oracle
suite of products and it's my understanding that the "Oracle Open Gateway"
can provide access to IMAGE databases without the need to convert them to
IMAGE/SQL. (Please note the phrase "my understanding").

As far as I remember there is some beast called "Oracle
transparent gateway for IMAGE/SQL" that does some kind of
bridge between the two databases. One can make IMAGE/SQL
data "visible" in the Oracle database or vice versa or
maybe even both. Sorry, but I do not have details at hand.
