Richard,

I have (from our Authorware dealer) an info sheet on QELIB from Pioneer
Software, a windows/OS2 database library. Makes it possible to access and
manipulate data stored in external databases (AS/400 is one of them, some
others are Oracle, SQL Server, dBase, Ingres, Paradox, ...) via DLL-calls.
Price from our dealer (december 1993) : 995,- Dutch Guilders.
Rumours were that there would be a Mac version too.

Maybe someone else on the list has used this. If so, please let us all know
what you think of it.

Greetings.
