Among standard FileOpen, ReadU, and dynamic array operations, mv.NET has
the ability to work with MV data using commands that are familiar to SQL
users: Select, Insert, Update, Delete.  And it does this without going
through the ODBC/OleDB server.  The field references are DICT definitions
and the syntax is mostly standard Access/UniQuery.  An enhancement which is
coming very soon allows more SQL-like queries which will facilitate MV DBMS
access for people who are more familiar with relational databases.

So to answer your first question, as of sometime next month mv.NET should
qualify as a candidate for your consideration.

As to the second question, one of my Universe clients had a lot of issues
with the ODBC and OleDB server.  Long story short, IBM was unable to help.
They have not had any issues since switching to mv.NET.    YMMV
