by We are looking for an interface from MacIntosh Excel to our ORACLE database
on SUN4/DEC RISC.
Has anybody used ClearAccess (Fairfield Software) or Second Wind (Anju
Technologies)? If you have used either of these products, I would be
interested in the following:
o How good is the documentation?
o How easy/comfortable is it for the database novice to use?
o A database expert will set up the queries initially. How easy would
it be for the novice to modify queries and become more independent?
o Any select restrictions (handles joins, subselects, etc.)?
o Any insert/update/delete restrictions?
o How robust is it on sql*net?
o Any restrictions that strike you as odd?
Any comments will be appreciated. If folks email to me directly, I'll be
happy to summarize and post.
