Re: Ada and databes

[Dave Wood <dpw@cts.com>]

If I'm not mistaken, Oracle discontinued Pro*Ada some
time ago (and, again I might be wrong here, but isn't
it specific to Oracle databases?)

Aonix offers an SQL pre-compiler in the Enterprise
edition of ObjectAda, which compiles embedded SQL
statements into calls to a thick ODBC binding.
Sample programs are included.

Another option is the ODBC bindings included in
one of the Win32 binding packages, including WinAPI
(part of ObjectAda OpenPack bundle), or Win32Ada
(publicly available and included with all OA
versions.)  These bindings are on the thin side,
and in the case of Win32Ada, not maintained by 
Aonix.  However they might be perfectly appropriate 
for your purposes.

I guess the common theme in this range of options
is ODBC.  An ODBC driver for Access is available
from Microsoft (probably included with Access,
if not Windows itself, but I'm not entirely sure).
