Abstract
An apparatus for and method of utilizing an Internet terminal coupled to the world wide web to access an existing proprietary data base management system having a dialog-based request format. The user terminal operates in a web browser environment during accesses to the existing proprietary data base management system. The data base management system provides facilities allowing the user to access its own internal directories and files while in the web browser environment. This is accomplished by making the access request to the proprietary data base management system which in turn accesses the requested data in the user terminal via the world wide web. The response is transferred back across the world wide web to the browser within the user terminal.
