Carl one thing you might want to look at (for the future) is the IDAPI
driver of Delphi/400.  This uses all of the standard TTable and database
components of Delphi.  This allows you to simply "switch" databases from
NT to AS400.  We have used it a little and it is fairly seamless.  The
only complication we have run into is the limitation on column (field)
names on the 400 vs Oracle.
