Debster -

Horses for courses. It's like saying 'what do you use for your applications'
- there's a wealth of scenarios out there and tools for each of them ..

At the top end, Aptitude from Microgen. Not cheap, but a fully featured
suite for transforming data: very powerful, graphical and loved by financial
analysts. Probably too heavy for most mv uses, and you need a serious
consulting budget for that as well. But for sheer firepower it's one of the
best.

At the bottom end, BCI out of UniVerse. The advantage of BCI is that you
have total programmatic control over the data you ship out, especially where
it isn't easy to get it from enquiry type statements. 

Inbetween, Conduit [ad] or the data transformation tools in SQL Server if
you want to pull data in from UniVerse over e.g. ODBC.

And I'm waiting for someone to say DataStage... (I don't use it so I can't
recommend it).

Regards

Brian
