Excel Four can apparently do SQL commands to unix databases.
You need DAL on the mac and a DAL server on the unix host.
We are running Oracle 6.033 on a sparc 2.
Presumably you get the DAL server from APDA; is this true?
Would the Oracle supply it?
After we get the DAL server will Excel 4 then be able to communicate to
the Oracle database?
Whats peoples experiences running this configuration?
