I've
started with Oracle 5 on MVS a very long time ago, ProCobol was
there.
It is
probably still there since it is the most popular language on
mainframes.

Subject: Oracle on a mainframe (MVS)We have a future need to create an Oracle database on a mainframe (MVS) which will then pull data from an Oracle database on an HPUX box. I know nothing about MVS so does anyone know of any connectivity problems between the two boxes? For example, SQL*Net does come with the server on MVS, correct? Does Pro*Cobol also exist on MVS? Would the connection from MVS to HPUX be a simple as creating a database link or are there more problems than that?Any help would be appreciated.Thanks,Tom
