It's a real one... In StarOffice the Adabas engine is preconfigured, so going to tools, datasources, then right-clicking on the dialogue box gets you the option to add new data source. Select Adabas as the type (presumably can be made default, not looked yet), click New Database, give it a name, set the password, enter the password (slightly annoying), click OK, wait...
Now select the Tables tab, or the queries tab.
So far, so identical to using MySQL via odbc/jdbc.
What else is needed? Not my area, so that's as far as I get.
Anyone else actually using it? As I remeber the Adabas which came with SO 5.2 was knobbled in some way - maybe a limit on the number of tables or something. Do you end up saving a local file like an Access .mdb file?
<snip> StarOffice can access an Adabas D database if the latter has a version number 11.02 or higher. The following values apply to the Adabas D version 11 under StarOffice: Restricted to a max. of 100 MB and 3 users per database. Paul
