Information Access SQL/iX

What Access SQL/iX Does 

Access SQL/iX is the HP 3000-based SQL server component of Information
Access.  It works with the PC-based application Information Access to
give PC users access to the following relational database management
systems on HP 3000 Series 900 computers:

   *   ALLBASE/SQL

   *   ORACLE

   *   INGRES

With Access SQL/iX, PC users can view and work with ALLBASE/SQL, ORACLE,
and INGRES tables in the following ways:

   *   Select only the data needed for viewing and manipulation.

   *   Sort and summarize table information.

   *   Save and/or print the results of table manipulations.

   *   Reformat result tables for use in popular PC applications.

Result tables can be downloaded directly to PC databases and spreadsheets
such as:

   *   dBASE II, III, III+, and IV

   *   R:base 4000/5000, R:base System V, and R:base for DOS

   *   Paradox

   *   Symphony

   *   Lotus 1-2-3

   *   Executive Card Manager (ECM)

   *   Microsoft Excel

Result tables can be converted to DIF format for Graphics Gallery, to
ASCII for Microsoft Word and other PC word processors, or to CSV
(Comma-Separated Variable used by Information Access) for R:base, Lotus
1-2-3, and other applications.
