You may want to try 

DataDirect Connect64-ODBC
EasySoft ODBC
OpenLink ODBC.

We run 64-bit UniData 6.1.10 on HP-UX 11.11 RISC.  The only product I
have played with is Connect64 for Oracle (Connect64 doesn't support HP
RISC processor.  So I had to contact DataDirect and build one evaluation
copy for me.).  But unfortunately, Connect64 for Oracle didn't work with
UniData BCI.

EasySoft and OpenLink ODBC Driver Manger is Open Source (unixODBC and
iODBC).  However, you have to pay for their ODBC drivers (evaluation is
free though).

FreeTDS is a driver for UNIX that allows your applications to
communicate with Microsoft SQL Server and Sybase databases. 
So you may want to try FreeTDS with unixODBC or iODBC.

Subject: [U2] UniData as an ODBC _client_

We've been trying to get this to work for years... it should be
possible, in 
UniBasic, to connect to an ODBC data source and do a select, then cursor

through the results.  I've even seen sample code.  Unfortunately, we've 
never been able to find all the pieces of the puzzle and make them fit 
together.  (Is this the same question as the "Can Universe Play with
Access" 
thread?)

Were need a driver manager and driver for Sybase and Microsoft SQL.

The driver manager must present a shared library (libodbc.sl) that is 
compatible with UniData 6.1 on HP-UX Itanium.

In the past it has been critical to have a 64-bit library for an
application 
that was compiled as 64-bit.  It was also critical to have a single
threaded 
library, as Unidata was compiled as single threaded.

I don't have any absolute knowledge of either of these parameters for
the 
current version of Unidata 6.1 on Itanium, but I suspect it might be
64-bit 
and multi-threaded.
