We have a C API provided as a DLL which allows remote access to RMS files.
You can create/open/read/write files (and more... Print to queues...) on a
VMS (or unix) machine using the DLL routines on your PC, provided that you
run our server on the host machine.

The server runs on most Unixes as well as VMS, and the client side API runs
on Unix and Windows/DOS. Take a peek at http://www.synergex.com
