In talking to a few > people, this can take on some very different definitions. Sort of like client/server or CASE, isn't it? Personally, I consider middleware to be anything that bridges the operating system and application software. This can be anything from Help Systems' Robot to the ESS file access tool to Showcase to Client Access. Something that you don't NEED to run your applications OR your system, but makes doing so easier. JMHO, Dean Asmussen Enterprise Systems Consulting, Inc.
