I know there have been previous attempts to provide bindings / preprocessors to SQL from Ada but these seem quite old (?). What is the current position ?. Has anyone else got DB2 and Ada to talk to each other ?. This is really just an experiment to test a long held belief of mine that it is time that RDB's, like garbage collection, be used on *some* real time systems. Processing power, memory, disk space - it's all so cheap these days. Has anyone else out there played with this combination ?. -- ------------------------------------- Chris Miller chrismil@ozemail.com.au
