  Brian:

  Why couldn't he run windows on a workstation with a window's
  Novel network client. This would keep other Novell stuff working.
  Then that workstation could access the SQL database or be used as
  a SQL server to the dos workstation, If this worked he could eventually
  move more all the workstations to windows.
