From: rmeyer@cca-unix (Richard Meyer) We are looking for a natural language interface for database queries that operates on a VAX under VMS. Ideally, the package would be a commercial product, but we are willing to look into prototypes. Any references to such packages, or names of contacts would be appreciated.

Try Themis(tm) from Frey Associates, Nashua NH. Themis is said to be an artificially intelligent front end to (currently) Oracle and Datatrieve which can take a "wish" for some report in English from a non-programmer and generate the query language for the DBMS back-end. I've never used it, and only know of the product because Frey is a customer of ours. Stephen L. Arnold, jnet Product Manager, Joiner Associates Inc. Mail P.O. Box 5445, Madison WI 53705-0445 U.S.A.
