Baker, How live and active is this bi-directional transfer likely to be? Do you need to consider the possibility of data collisions (ie: will someone change a record in your UV database that could also be changed on the other end) OR are the discrete changes somewhat atomic transactions,

I'd recommend MQSeries too, it is tried and tested technology - it works and works well. It has APIs for C, C++ and Java too. As Craig has pointed out, there is support in U2 BASIC from 10.x up for MQSeries AMI API (a subset of the full MQ API). MQSeries guarantees delivery, can offer

Bill, So what you are saying is that it is bad usage of the equate statement even though it can be done. I agree and the '=' is used more often for this type of equation. However, this program was created 15 years ago (long before I started here) and had been working fine until the code was

Sockets are just the pipe you push/pull things through. One of the features they bring to the table is that you get to (yes, I actually said that) design your own protocol for using them reliably or pick one of the already available protocols. FTP, HTTP, RCP, and telnet (and pretty much

Thank you Robert and Janet. Overly kind of you Robert to take the time to distill some insights into this reply. You give more consideration to the overhead of data Transformation and make an almost convincing argument to do it on the dedicated target, assumedly something relational/non-MV.
