The app needs to see the ROWID. We tried the Connx ODBC but it doesn`t have the ROWID.

I may try the Oracle 10.1 version and see if I can get this one to work instead.

The Attunity product is interesting but probably too costly for this. We will probably change the app that writes to RMS to instead write to Oracle, albeit temporarily, to alleviate the problem. The RMS app will be completely rewritten in the course of this year.
