zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzip

Now the RBase for Dos has been released and it implements at least a
subset of SQL, what might the feasability be for porting an RBase
application from a micro to mainframe based SQL database?  Has anyone
ever tried this?  My gut feeling is that there are still too many
dissimilarities to make the project anything less than a royal pain.

Can anyone confirm or change that hypothesis?

Thanx,
