RE: Is Project Lightning still alive?

I wonder whether IBM ever got it to work efficently. I couldn't wait until
the did so I wrote my own objects. They are available to download at
http://www.cm-inc.com/AS400ole/ if you're interested.

I would would like to hear the opions of anyone who has used the Project
Lighting
OLE DB Provider and SDK toolkit etc on a enterprise project --how did it
work out? I have downloaded all the essentials required to start on a
project I just can help noticing that there have been no updates since 1998
(Maybe IBM are more interested in Java releated products-a shame for us
microsoft lovers) and the product still appears to be in a pre-release
state---reading the Redbook made me realise that this is exactly what I have
been looking for to interface the MSF (Microsoft Solution Framework) to the
AS/400.

cheers Dave
