hm, best guess would be no. You'll have to go with Oracle. But, MapInfo SpatialWare on top of MS SQL Server can translate the geographical data to OGC WKT (Well Known Textr) or OGC WKB (Well Known Binary), so if the remaining applications in some way can read/write these data formats that might be a way to proceed.
But I'm pretty sure that this is not the easiest solution ;-) Peter Horsbøll Møller GIS Developer, MTM Geographical Information & IT COWI A/S Odensevej 95 DK-5260 Odense S.
