at the moment it reads in txt files from the DOS apps and then does the database work
the problem is if the DOS app crashes or errors out it will completely crash the bridge app With the 3.1 client would that have been a ODBC interface?

I don't think there was ever a DOS client software that was released. There was a 16 bit Windows 3.1 client but that wouldn't work with DOS applications. How does your "bridge" tackle the problem? Perhaps we can suggest a different approach.

At the moment I have a "bridge" app that takes FOR EVER to update the database (ideally I would like each DOS machine to update the database directly) Can this be done from DOS?
