One of the benefits of using a third-party commercial library for implementing ISAM-A is that there are other third-party add-on tools available. Either of the products below will allow you to access your ISAM-A files from standard query and reporting tools such as Crystal Reports, Excel, Access, etc. If you are interested in this type of tool, please contact MicroSabio to check on latest developments.

ConnX

ConnX Solutions, Inc. (http://www.connx.com) provides an ODBC/OLEDB driver for DISAM, along with an SQL query tool. It does not (yet) support F6, I4, and B5 data formats. If you intend to use this tool, you may want to convert your floating point fields to IEEE single (F4) or double (F8) formats.

EasySoft

EasySoft Limited (http://www.easysoft.com) provides a similar interface, which does support all the standard field types, but is somewhat more expensive than the ConnX tool.
