Shame on you!! :) :) :) 

What you want is self modifying code, just load the correct code instructions 
(rules) from the database, and then execute 'em. 
I used to have to maintain a system that worked just like that... it was - 
"fun." 

Oh well, you could always move over to Mainframe Assembler and just use the 
EXecute command... 

All kidding aside, what I would look at doing is moving the logic to a stored 
procedure on the database, and then execute it there.
If the programs do not have a lot of maintenance on them, that is. If they do, 
well... it might be that they way there are now is the best (or least bad) way 
to keep them.
