Running Windows front end apps under Win-OS/2

Hi, I'm currently trying to get a Windows application, which front-ends an Oracle 6 system we have running on a Netware 3.11 server, working under Win-OS/2. The reason I want to do this is due to better stability under OS/2 2.11/3.0 (we run something like a dozen different applications concurrently on the workstations and Windows just can't keep up without crashing every 3 or 4 hours!!!)

I've installed the required support files for OS/2 and can quite happily connect to the server using SQLDBA from an OS/2 command prompt, so connectivity from OS/2 is not an issue.

The application we are using was written in-house in MS Visual Basic v3.0, and uses oracle-glue to talk to the DBMS.

Has anyone out there in unreality-land done, or is attempting to do, anything like this.

Please post any responses here, as I' currently having problems getting access to the mail server.

Thanks in advance.
