Hi,

I have been given the task at work to loosely link multiple databases
running of different hardware (IBM Mainframe, VAX, HP3000) together.
I need to track hazardous material flow through receiving, inspection,
store, and the shop areas.  Each area has their own database that
doesn't talk to one another.  I would appreciate any tips, hints,
suggested software, etc. that you could offer.  I am thinking about
developing a PC frontend that can query each of these databases as
needed.  Please reply through the e-mail and I will summarize that
answers if there is enough interest.
