651.0. "need details about SQR" by TAV02::ARIE (Arie Blum -- SWAS DEC-Israel) Thu May 17 1990 11:44

Does anyone has any experience with the SQR product ?

I'm especially needs some details about the following subjects :

   1. How it works on ACMS environment ?

   2. Is it possible to CALL SQR modules from COBOL ?

   3. Is it possible to CALL COBOL modules from SQR ?

   4. Is it possible to share d.b. handle between pre-compiled modules
      and SQR modules ?

   5. Is it easy to use it ? 

   6. Does it has good performance (I think it uses the Dynamic SQL ?

   7. Do you think it's easy to generate Reports with SQR ?


Any details about the SQR product is welcome.

I'm consider using this product on a very large ACMS application to generate
many reports instead of the COBOL Report writer.

(I can't afford using DTR because of the performance demands).


   many thanks in advance

            Arie.


p.s. : I post this note in RDB_31 and the rdb competition notes files.

    I am working with the Digital folks in Indianapolis.  They have a
    university there that wants to prototype ACMS/SQR/Oracle.  We're just
    starting the research but it looks promising.  Will keep you posted.
