Hi Hugh,
So far, we've found a bug in its perl install script that doesn't check for
the DBD directory before installing the driver. This causes the driver to be
called DBD....
Creating the tables is a bit involved. The sql commandline interface expects
statements to be prefixed by sql_execute, and cannot span multiple lines.
We're now writing a perl script to handle database creation instead.
The good thing about the database is the handling of backups and
replication - online backups are supported.
BTW, once the DBD driver is installed correctly, DBI works just fine.
Source is available from http://www.sapdb.org
Cheers,
Gordon

If there is a DBD module for SAP, it will work with Radiator, and you can
use
the AuthBy SQL clause to interface to it.
I am not familiar with SAP directly, so can you tell me if there is anything
in particular that may be an issue?
