Colin:

Thanks for the info...sorry for providing the list with misinformation.  :-(

I noticed that UniObjects for .NET is under development and is due for
release sometime in mid 2004.  Also, the calls to U2 from .NET use SQL not
the U2 query language or a READ-type extraction.

There's been a lot of traffic here about the difficulties of setting up
UniObjects and UniOleDB for use by .NET.  I didn't really think it couldn't
be done, just not by a challenged individual such as myself. :-)

I've seen IBM presentations about their intent to link U2 to .NET and those
products are expected to be available in mid to late 2004 (the current set
of products were not sufficient).  I don't believe that for an MV developer,
building an SQL layer to access and update MV data is the optimal MV
solution.  The PDP.NET product seems to be in the right direction and I
assume IBMs forthcoming .NET solution(s) for U2 will be similar.
