Okay, I tried the above search.  It looks promising.  Does anyone know of 
a version of DB2 that runs on OpenSolaris x86?  I found the download page 
for DB2 Express-C, aka the no-charge version, but the only Solaris version 
it listed was an x64 version for Solaris 10.  I'm running the x86 version 
of OpenSolaris.

I primarily use PostgreSQL, but am always willing to try other databases.

Has anyone tried Firebird's COBOL precompiler?  I tried it with TinyCOBOL 
quite a while back, but it didn't work very well back then.  I forget the 
exact details but I think it converted - to _ in some of the variable 
names so that one had to edit the output and fix the variable names before 
compiling with the COBOL compiler.
