Jack --

Relations can be defined on the fly, if I understand your question correctly.

If you mean "can I create tables or views in a program and drop them when I
am done," or even more succinctly, "can I use SQL or QUEL DDL in an OSL or
embedded host language program," the answer is yes.  You can create tables,
views, indices, permissions, etc. in programs or directly in SQL in our
SQL terminal monitor or Interactive SQL utilities, or using a special
TABLES utility.

Jack, if you like, you could e-mail me directly.  I am curious -- can you
e-mail me the name of your sales rep?
