We are running Isodat NT SP 2.49 on Windows XP (Kiel IV/MAT253).  The 
computer is presently completely isolated from the network.
I've noticed that the sqlserv.exe process takes up a lot(!) of memory.  Has 
anyone tried ending that process, or know whether it is necessary for the 
proper function of Isodat?  I haven't seen it bundled with other XP 
installations, so I'm curious as to what it actually does.  My web searches 
have yielded a mixed bag of answers, and so I'm wondering if anyone has 
tried killing that process (especially running a Kiel) and what result(s) 
that had.  Thanks for any insight...
