Although I have used UniVerse more that UniData, I believe that the ODBC connections and SQL is easier on UniVerse than UniData, this probably is due to Datastage development. UniVerse also has an authorization statement in BASIC which allows a program to run at a higher security level than the user has rights to, UniData does not have this.
I know there are some large UniVerse sites, but I don't know to what size UniData can scale to. UniData has a sophisticated recovery File System, but I think Dynamic files are better on UniVerse. IBM is providing the same client facilities to both although some items may be released 6 months earlier in one product than another, but this is mixed for both product lines. With the editors, UniDebbuer comes with both products and it is a reasonable GUI editor. Both are good databases, so the best is to work out what you are looking for to choose the database Regards David Jordan ------- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
