We use one called TcAccess by GT Software. I believe it is called Ivory
Data Access now. Sounds very similar.

We have PowerExchange by Informatica. It runs as an STC. It allows our
Business Intelligence people to do SQL-like queries against various VSAM
and sequential files from their PCs, using a "client" software. I don't
know much about it. I do know that you need to create "data maps" from your
COPYBOOKS so that the product knows where the fields are.
