484.0. "SYBASE tools for a Vaxstation" by WAV14::HALPERN () Wed Nov 08 1989 20:12

    We have a situation where the customer has chosen SYBASE as their
    database of choice on a VAX platform.  Are there any tools, either
    ours or third party that will help to develop applications in this
    environment that will run on a VAX workstation, and are more robust
    than SYBASE's own tools?

    The customer might have considered this before buying Sybase.

    Fortex's Passport is one. But I'm not familiar with it.

    Wait 'till they start writing SQL code inside a program and have to put
    in the logic to connect to the Sybase server.   Then go back and
    rewrite the same program in Rdb SQL. We saw a program go from
    224 lines of Sybase SQL to 64 lines of Rdb SQL to do the same thing.
