IDS 9.3 VIEW into an Orrible db?

Sorry to do this to you, guys, but unfortunately we're now being outsourced to a company that has an O***** db, and I've been asked if our main in-house db (IDS9.3 on HP-UX) can open a VIEW to tables on the other company's db. I've done a bit of a trwal through cdi & iiug and not found much. Anyone got any clues? Hint: this may eventually have a direct impact on whether we keep our own IDS9.3 and, implicitly, whether I keep my job. Ta Malc Looking forward to some time in the Monastery.
