Not doubting the power of the Holiday Inn Express, but in the past I had a 
Windows LAN-free client whose tapes were reclaimed by an AIX TSM server, which 
would leave me to conclude that AIX somehow managed to read the tapes, even 
though they were written with a crayon.  Also AIX did make some off-site copies 
of these LAN-free tapes.

Tapes are written in different formats on different platforms, so the
answer to your question is "no".  You would have to export all of the data
from Windows and import to AIX, not just the database.

No, I'm not from development, but I did sleep at a Holiday Inn Express last
night!
