[Sheflug] sybase, anyone?

[xxxxx [at] xxxxxxxxxx]

hello sheflug

only found out about you lot last week having bought 'linux magazine' for a
long train journey.

i'm a physicist at weston park hospital, and, though a relative newbie to
linux, have taken on a big project.

this is just on the offchance that someone out there has the relevant skills
and wouldn't mind exchanging a few emails to get me going.

i've got redhat 7.1 going on a nice dell poweredge server.
i'm writing in C (which I'm new to) trying to get data from a flat ASCII
file into a big sybase database, by calling special procedures (from a 3rd
party manufacturer) using the sybase Open DB library.  

Is this anyone's bread and butter in sheffield?

thanks anyway, i know its a long shot...

steve
