Our RPG2SQL product can do this very nicely - easy procedures to call to do the work.

It also works directly with Excel workbooks - not using SQL or Java.

If interested, feel free to call me or Richard at 888.rjs.soft (toll-free) or email me or ask for sales.

I even have an Open Access handler for it. This actually gives you access to remote databases with minimal changes to your RPG code - very cool, if I may say so myself!

Subject: For Christmas, I want

For Christmas, I want the IBM Rochester system i team to do something significant to make the i a true server of choice.
I think I remember that 'server of choice' phrase from times past, but the gap I continue to see is the difficulty of querying foreign SQL DB from DB2 on i.

Some years ago, from MS Sql Server or Access I could "easily"
create 'pass-through' queries against DB2. But the reverse required a purchase.

Now, I am working through that same dilemma and wonder why
DB2 on i does not have native ability to exchange data with other ANSI compliant Db.

Out of the box, so to speak.
