AcuXDBC™ | Data Management System for Vision Files

Access your data from the most popular Windows® applications. Manage your data like a relational database. AcuXDBC gives your end users the power to use Microsoft Excel® to create bar charts from your COBOL data, Word’s mail merge to generate form letters from customer data, or Crystal Reports® to issue a financial report. AcuXDBC also allows you to create a system catalog and base tables, giving you the flexibility to query and manage your corporate data in a relational database-like manner..

AcuXDBC is a data management system designed to incorporate Vision files into a relational database-like environment. AcuXDBC enables you to apply SQL and relational database concepts to your COBOL data files, resulting in data that can be accessed and managed in much the same way as many of today’s popular relational database management systems.

AcuXDBC provides broad flexibility in the way your COBOL data is accessed and maintained. It translates SQL requests to COBOL I/O actions and COBOL data to ODBC-compliant data sets. ACUCOBOL-GT® indexed, relative, or sequential data files can then be retrieved or updated from ODBC (Open Database Connectivity)-enabled applications, such as Microsoft Word, Excel, and Access, as well as Business Objects’ Crystal Reports. With AcuXDBC Enterprise Edition, Vision data can also be accessed from Java applications that utilize JDBC standards.

Files can be easily managed locally on a Windows NT/2000 PC using AcuXDBC or on a UNIX® operating system using AcuXDBC Enterprise Edition along with third-party ODBC core libraries. For remote file access, AcuXDBC Server can perform remote SQL processing on your UNIX, Linux, or Windows NT/2000 server.

AcuXDBC, AcuXDBC Server, and AcuXDBC Enterprise Edition are key members of the extend®8 family of solutions, designed to help you make the most productive use of your corporate data wherever it resides.
