David,
Looking in DataDirect history from their web site at page :
http://www.datadirect.com/aboutus/history/index.ssp
shows that the company is still an independant company, and has not been
purchased by Progress Software.
Though, as quoted in their "Strategic Partnership" at page :
http://www.datadirect.com/aboutus/strategicpart/index.ssp
they demonstrate that many database and database management solutions
vendors such as Progress Software and IBM (for Websphere and Websphere MQ)
are embedding the DataDirect products into their products.
The interesting point is that they are the ONLY licensed by Microsoft to
have access to the source code and developments Microsoft does around ODBC,
so they can port to UNIX and Linux the ODBC drivers developped by
Microsoft.

IBM/Informix/Ardent has apparently utilised the Merant ODBC Driver Manager,
in the past...the company spun-off the ODBC business into another company
at
http://www.datadirect.com/products/odbc/odbcunix/index.ssp
Data Direct has been acquired by Progress Software now.

Subject: ODBC Universe (Unix) to MS Access
Evening all,
I want to be able to write and read an Access database on the LAN, from
UniVerse 10.0.16 HP-UX 11i. Ray Daignault's comment about this in the
archives (2001) is that a Unix ODBC driver and Driver Manager are required.
Does anyone have any opinions on what drivers are better/worse than others
?
I am getting info from easysoft and openlink - anyone else worth talking to
?
