    Progress DB

    Does anyone know how I might access a Progress DB running in Linux via php?
    Has anyone done such a thing? Thanks, Ike

      I'd assume Ike means Progress (http://www.progress.com/index.ssp).

      Look into UnixODBC.

          We do this via ODBC and it works okay.
          Although why anyone would voluntarily choose Progress, I'm not sure.
          The only reason we suffer through it is because it came as the backend
          for some purchased software. If it's not too late to change your mind
          (or if it's even possible), I'd definitely switch to something else.

            Yes, I agree -- this is just a legacy DB of a client's which we are
            inherinting to complete a job. Yuck. -Ike
