Tim,

We have a VAX/VMS7.1 maching with RMS Indexed files that we have been trying to 
connect to.
I haven't been able to find any ODBC tool to connect to the VAX.
What I have so far is a company called  CONNX has a product that will connect to VAX 
using CONNX and from there you can use ODBC to get to Oracle.
The alternative that we are currently using here is the old fashioned method of 
First  create a fixed length ascii file on the VAX system. Then FTP that to our Oracle 
server. Then use SQLoader into Oracle.
Oracle has a  'Transparent Gateway for RMS' that is in beta testing.   We are going to 
be participating in that beta.  Hopefully that will be a better way.

Good Luck and please let me know if you find another way to do this.

My client is trying to connect from an RDB database on a VAX/VMS machine to an Oracle 
database on an HP machine.  Can this be done?  How?
