HP-UX on Itanium? I didn't think HP had actually sold any of those! Now I begin to understand your problem, Wendy, it's that you happen to be in a tiny portion of what was already a bit of a niche market. Might be quite hard work finding software that works, especially if you don't want to pay gazillions of dollars. Sorry Mike P.S. I'm sure your friendly local Sun salesdroid would give you a really sharp price on a an AMD Opteron box running Solaris, but maybe that's a rather drastic way of getting an ODBC-ODBC bridge! :-) -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Wendy Smoak Sent: Saturday, 15 October 2005 08:35 To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: Re: [U2] connection from UniBasic to a SQL database From: Metherall, Arthur [EMAIL PROTECTED] We're running AIX and have found Easysoft ODBC-ODBC Bridge software to be great!

Re: [U2] connection from UniBasic to a SQL database
As others have said - we are communicating both ways between UniVerse on AIX (unix) and MS SQL using the BCI and the OpenLink ODBC drivers. As part of the same communication we also send data to Oracle also on AIX - i.e. we are updating two different databases when a change happens in UniVerse. We did need to make some changes when Oracle was upgraded to 9i as regards date processing but apart from that it has been relatively painless.

Re: [U2] connection from UniBasic to a SQL database
From: HENDERSON MIKE, MR [EMAIL PROTECTED] I've written stuff to read from a SQL database into UniBasic using the BCI. UV 10.0.15 to MS SQL Server 2000, all on Windows, using the MS SQL Server driver. I hear it does work on Windows. On HP-UX, however, no one I know of has found the magic combination of driver manager and driver that actually works. -- Wendy Smoak --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

Wendy,
Not sure I cut your original message out of the messages correctly, but here
goes.
As someone else mentioned for unix you need to 'acquire' 3rd party software
in order to access non-unix databases from unix, i.e., MS SQL, Oracle, Sybase,
etc.
We're running AIX and have found Easysoft ODBC-ODBC Bridge software to be
great! (granted we're only pulling information from MS SQL into UniData, but
that's ALL we need it for.)
Check out their website at www.easysoft.com, their inexpensive especially
compared to certain other 3rd parties.
It's easy to install and setup. Contact me off list if you have any questions.
Hope this is helpful,
Arthur

We're on HP-UX. At the moment I'm reading from Sybase with their JDBC
driver then using UniObjects for Java to write records into UniData.
It's working fine, but it would be
*really* nice to connect directly to Sybase from a UniBasic program.

things are not this simle on unix - 3rd party odbc drivers need to be purchased
, installed configured.
I have never worked with a client who has gone this route, it never seems to be
worth the bother expense.
