Yes, I know.
try to call Merant and see if you can get a better deal. Depending of your
particular case they may give you a break.
For the project we had implemented, money was not an issue. If you need to
access the SQL server constantly than maybe this is the cheapest and solid
solution. Any other custom development will actually cost more in developing
and testing time.
If you have a database on Solaris, you can write a SP (trigger) on the
MS-SQL server to write the information in a file. ftp the file to the
Solaris box and insert into the proper tables. Depending of the nature of
your application this may be a viable solution
