When almost finished the project was canned (rumor was performance/capacity issues, but who knows). They either were allowed to keep/buy some of the code or were able to recode with what they had learnt. In any case Sequel/38 came out shortly after this project folded. They obviously had access to info not generally available at the time. Rod Orr
