Re: Emulator Interface with Win2k

[Vernon Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxx>]

Every driver has differing capabilities. Seems to me that CA's OLE/DB
driver can only return single result sets, where HiT's can handle multiple
ones. It may have changed by now. So these will need to be determined. But
then, MS's OLE/DB over ODBC could handle multiple sets. But it had more
overhead.

TMTOWTDI - there's more than one way to do it
