Well by the the number of responses you got I would say no. Really it is
quite a shame for there are lots of people out there with legacy apps
that use a somewhat modified ISAM interface that would like to move to a
database with the ability to mix ISAM and SQL. ( I am currently in this
boat). Now I know with informix if you bought the ISAM package it would
read and write their database files directly and you could still use
their SQL engine.

I wonder what would be involved in writing an ISAM access. I would think
that there must be routines in there to traverse the indices and
database files and find next index entry and previous index entry.
