I've used Open DB (on Solaris and NT), but it was about two or three years
ago :) It's not a hard API to use, from what I recall. It may mean I have to
dig out sample code as I don't have manuals available any more, so unless
Sybase have radically changed the Open DB API (highly unlikely based on past
experience with them) it should be similar.

I've done work in that area; it's a question of what I can remember ...
