My company just did an evaluation on the various products available to convert the character based applications to GUI. I was not impressed with OI as it had several undocumented features, which had to have workarounds. Most of the problems were in attaching to our existing Unidata database. I was told that the demo version was an older version and that the latest version does not have those problems. I did not receive any other versions.
