Hi Charles,

I post a fake email address since posting with my real email address
is a magnet to spammers.  I will give out my hotmail address which is
barrmanAThotmaildotcom (replace the AT with the at sign and the dot
with a period.  I am reluctant to give out specifics in this forum but
would gladly provide more specifics via the email above.

From what I am told, they have successfully done this using Windows 95
or NT (basically with the 32bit ODBCLink driver).

As to whether or not the data is available from a terminal screen I am
not sure either.  I do have a contact there and can ask them these
questions.  On our next trip out there we plan to find out more about
their database, we are reading up on it now.

What is funny is that they can use MSAccess to gain access to the real
DATA within the table, but our software can't get at that data, but it
can see the definition.

I would think it would be in one set.  We are currently working with a
test database and I am almost sure everything is nice and neat in one
set of data and not scattered around.

I am willing to provide more specifics as to our application etc via a
private email thread.  Thanks for responding.
