Haven't done it, but it sounds interesting. Nosed around with searches at google and found out that Lasso (who sometimes announces to this mail list) appears to claim to be able to integrate them. (Lasso has their own language, something of a non-open competitor to perl/php.) Also went over to filemaker (http://www.filemaker.com) and found some specs. ODBC is apparently not yet supported on Mac OS X, but they seem to indicate they are working on it. It looks like it supports JDBC, so you may be in luck if you use Java. Not much information.
