Default Need help using Progress OpenEdge to connect pull data from a unidata db - 11-01-2005 , 03:53 PM






I come from a Progress background at my previous job, I'm currently
working for an education system that runs datatel with a unidata
database. I would like to be able to write gui programs in progress
that would have connectivity to the unidata db. Can anyone offer some
help?

thanks

There are ODBC drivers available for UD .... could be some "work"
required to expose your files, and I would hope that you are looking at
enquiry only type access so that you don't bypass integrity rules that
are probably embedded within eixtsing application (and NOT the 'raw'
database)

thanks...I definitly do not want to bypass and integrity rules

I'm looking into odbc, but I've also heard I could use uniobjects and
java. I was just wondering if anyone had connected progress to unidata
using this method
