Peter,
We do use GE Flowcast 3 (going to 4 soon) but I was wondering if there
was a way to access Cache without the screens - They can be so slow...
I was thinking of the ODBC connection but am unaware of how this works
or if possible.

Subject: Re: [Talk] BWS 9.0 & Cache Database
Brian,
The short answer is "yes". Cache programmer mode/terminal text
sessions can be emulated with WRQ Reflection, which BWS 9.0 has a
connection for. You might be able to use the terminal client included
with Cache, but this would be trickier.
The long answer involves how you actually intend to read/write
to the DB. Cache is a DB and a scripting language and for the most part
people store and retrieve data via some 3rd party application (like Epic
or GE Flowcast). You can do this because the GUI is already written,
and you can just set up a script to send keys based on prompt like with
any other app. If you have an "empty" Cache install and want to use BWS
to write data into home-made globals...there are better ways to get data
into Cache (like with ODBC).
