RE: Generic java class that will allow RPG/RPGSQLE program to access non-iSeries Data

investment would pay for itself fairly quickly.... 


Thanks,

Another possibility ... and I have *ZERO* idea how hard this would be to
implement .. would be to try and do the JDBC request to the other
database directly from RPG using prototyped java calls.

Just a thought.
