I had stuff in aodbc-v1 (acl 5.0) that I had to port because of the disappearance of the "mid-level" access, i.e., all selects are now just SQL strings. The major problem is the ODBC drivers. I got mine from OpenLink (www.openlinksw.com). I can't imagine a more user-unfriendly setup - there are many pieces you have to get, they do not use terminology consistently, software does not install cleanly - I could go on and on. However once it's installed and setup, it seems to run well. (modulo a few minor problems I'm still working out). As for AODBC itself, though, no big problems. Email me if you want more details. -- Liam Healy <nrl.navy.mil at Liam.Healy>
