[AccessD] MySQL Newbie

MaxDB (SAPDB) is actually a code fork from the ADABAS-F Database done 
around 1990, if anybody goes that far back.
I seem to remember using ADABAS on IBM mainframes in mid 80's.
I haven't checked if anyone has written a MaxDB OLEDB driver for dotNet 
yet but there are several ODBC ones.
The SQL syntax is closer to Oracle than SQL Server.
