Thanks for the sharing. Up to now I have about 5 hours exposure to UniData datbase, I've also noticed it's also called PICK database, and my impression is that it could be a nasty beast.
Have you ever tried to import your RainingData PICK database into a RDBMS like MS SQL Server or MySQL then run querie against the RDBMS via ODBC driver or the like instead of going after the "beast" directly, from what you wrote the latter is no fun?
