Hello:

Does any one have any experiences they would be willing to share regarding the 
effort required to port applications from UniData to Universe?  We're currently 
on Unidata 7.1  We developed our application in an early version of SB+ and 
UniBasic and have kept current on SB+, so we're now at version 5.4.  We've also 
made use of various connectivity technolgies over time, such as ODBC, OLEDB, 
and UniObjects.   We haven't used the web services or ADO provider yet, but 
probably will eventually.  We are currently running on Windows but a Unix 
flavor is not out of the question if there is a compelling reason.

At this point, I'm just trying to figure out a way to gauge the relative 
effort, and if there were any surprises, such as better/worse performance, 
costs, development effort, etc and of course, any gotchas.  Also, is it 
feasible to to code the application in a way that it would work on either 
platform from the same code base?

The reason we're even considering this is because of IBM's decision not to 
implement NLS in UniData, at least not right away.   Of course, we've had 
conversations with IBM about converting, but would appreciate hearing from any 
one who has actually done this.  

thanks in advance.

Eugene
