858.1what does "work with" mean ????KCBBQ::DUNCANGerry Duncan @KCO 452-3445Tue Feb 05 1991 20:008
	What do you mean "work with" ?  Are you asking if Oracle will
	use DECnet DOS for the SQL*net driver ?  Which piece of "Oracle"
	are you interested in .... the database, the forms package,
	the menu system, the design/dictionary products, Email, .... ???

	If you can be more specific, may I (we) can help.

    ORACLE works with SQL*Net, their network environment which can layer
    on most types of communications protocols including DECnet, TCP/IP,
    VINES, Token ring, etc.  Therefore ORACLE can layer on top of PATHWORKS
    (DECnet-DOS, DECnet-OS/2, or DECnet-MAC).

858.3Rdb, not OracleSUBWAY::WANGFri Feb 22 1991 19:412
    Why not sell other tools like TRIM (please refer to 873).  If they like
    the tool, the migration to Rdb/VMS will be very easy.
