OLEDB is a Microsoft technology. Allaire has no plans to support it on
any Unix platform. I can't speak for Merant, but I doubt they are going
down this road either.

Many Allaire customers have used SequeLink to talk to data sources on
Windows. It basically is a 'universal' ODBC driver, which talks to a
Merant server on the Windows machine. This server has access to all the
data source on the Windows server, using ODBC, OLEDB, etc. The request
is performed and the results passed back to the SQL-Link ODBC driver on
the Unix platform.
