This very point is, in my view, the key to the continued existance of the HP 3000. It would be really great if the HP 3000 would become a more easily accessible platform for C/S applications. I suggest that a speedier implementation of ODBC 32 bits and a friendlier disposition of MPE towards Windows NT would do wonders for MPE. After all, cooperation usually accomplishes far more good things than exclusion. Kind regards, Denys. . .
