Have found out recently that Unidata runs on MS. What is the
difference between Unidata and Universe. We are particularly
interested in the following:
Interoperability i.e ODBC (we need to update SQL tables and would like
to use Crystal Reports)
Web Connectivity
XML

Any comments?

I highly recommend that you ask this question of the members of the U2
discussion list.  Membership is free.  The community is comprised of some of
the largest users of UV and UD products in the world and quite a few of the
original authors contribute there as well.

Take a look at OpenInsight.  It will provide everything that you mention in
your email's wish list - ODBC and a Data Warehouse to SQL support for
Crystal Reports Pro (through ODBC) simple Web Connectivity and support for
XML.

We have just been showing this stuff at CeBit in Hannover and people were
blown away by how easy it all is.  We were building apps and web enabling
them in front of people on the stand. Grab the eval from www.revsoft.co.uk
or www.revelation.com

Sorry for the blatant plug, but . . . .
