Subject: Tidbit - Improved Mac ODBC Database Connectivity?
This tidbit is from:
Gardner, Jon L, <jon@ci.bryan.tx.us>
I haven't used this software myself, but I know that a common complaint
from the Macintosh community is the lack of connectivity to some "common"
databases, namely MS Access. But take heart! Check this out:
<http://www.augsoft.com/router/>
This software runs on an NT server, but it enables cross-platform ODBC
client connectivity to almost any database by acting as a "middleman"
between the Mac/PC client and the database. If you're not already using
NT, I don't think it would be worth the headache of NT administration,
but if, like me, you're stuck in an NT shop, this could be a Very Good
Thing.
