Hi there We are looking for some beta testers for a new version of the DataExpress/ODBCLink product. This new release features: 1. The ability to define Image records for use from ODBC applications. This does not require Image/SQL be installed. This is an extension of the dictionary technology DataExpress includes that supports KSAM and MPE files. 2. New functionality in ODBC including the support of Foreign keys, column priviledges, table priviledges. 3.Roman8-PC/ANSI character translation 4. Improved support for stored procedures (allows multiple results sets). 5. Support for LONG VARBINARY data (Read Blobs) 6. DataExpress Dataview option support to add views of data and extra security. This functionality is available in both our 16 bit and 32 bit ODBC drivers. Both are included with DataExpress when the ODBCLink option is ordered. If you have an application that can test the above AND have time to test between now and January 6th please drop me a note which describes: 1. What desktop OS and what client software you would test with. 2. What Winsock stack and version you use. 3. What version of ALLBASE/SQL or IMAGE/SQL you are on. 4. What version of MPE you are on. 5. How much time you can put into this task. What's in it for you? 1) An opportunity to work with THE STATE OF THE ART in ODBC drivers for MPE. 2) The chance to influence future releases of the product. 3) Our thanks and cool limited edition t-shirt ... 4) A 60 day preview of our nexr release. TIA Birket PS You will be required to sign a beta agreement. We reserve the right to limit the number of testers. Birket Foster M. B. Foster Associates .. the 1-800-ANSWERS people!
