Don't hold your breath. Microsoft won't support (for political reasons) _anything_ on UNIX anytime soon. HOWEVER, Q+E/Intersolv (one of the biggest ODBC vendors around) IS offering ODBC on UNIX. Short term (end of July) Solaris 1.1 will be available. Other platforms/OSs to follow. Q+E used to have a Beta test program until Intersolve bought them. No beta test opportunities anymore. -- Mark Lawrence mark.lawrence@drd.com DRD Corporation +1.918.743.3013 5506 South Lewis Ave. +1.918.745.9037 fax Tulsa OK 74105
