Been there. Done that. Back in '96. Using Delphi 3 and Borland BDE (which comes with built-in heterogeneous SQL support).

This is of course ignoring the issue that SELECTs performing heterogeneous joins (or even homogeneous joins on Oracle db's only) is a Very Bad Idea (tm). I shoot and torture developers for less.

Thus, no Aligators allowed on my databases. Maybe you should go pushing and pimping your product in another newsgroup. I've heard a lot of good things about the dev.null newsgroup ya know.
