I do not have development tools in Baan-IV c4, but I do want to show extra customer information on several reports.
I have build a separate database in SQL2000, next to baandb, to store extra customer information.
My question:
is it possible to access the separate database from a Baan report script, find the extra information and show this on the concerning report?

Not by using baan sql.

Did you know that the price of the development kit has dropped dramatically?

Only solution (if it is) is that you use e.g. an external tool to retrieve the data and use e.g. the pipe or seq.read function to retrieve the data.

Another solution is using external tools like BO XI or Cognos to retrieve data from multiple databases.

Hope it helps,
