Hi Andrus.
Thanks for your reply. You are lucky not to have had experience
with FileMaker. Or at least its xDBC drivers anyway. ;-)
I have no choices here. FileMaker supplies a DataDirect SequeLink
driver which is of very disappointing quality. The latest version
stops even iSQL-Viewer from working.
So today I installed MySQL, and I'll see if I have time to explore
Cayenne with that, then try the hand-coded approach you suggest.
Thanks again,
Nick.
