If you're not going to dump a flat file and let the SQL server do the import you might want to look at Easysoft. We're using Easysoft's ODBC driver and rather than trying to integrate it into Universe, we're using the isql command that comes with it. The isql command is a UNIX command that works with their ODBC driver. You just have to create a couple of config files under /etc and make some modifications to your .profile so you can run the command. Just have your Universe program build a script containing the SQL command then execute the isql command to run the script as a batch. You capture the results of the execute statement and examine them to make sure it was successful. It's simple and Easysoft isn't very expensive.

I assume ODBC would be the way to go, with middleware from someone. Which middleware do people recommend ? Is there any which doesn't require UniVerse to be stopped to install ? I looked on the Wiki but didn't find anything about this.
