A colleagure here wants a relational database program for the Mac which has an SQL interface. Does anyone knbow of such a product, and if so can they comment on its general abilities? Please note that it must all run on the Mac, and not just provide an SQL front end to a remote database. Thanks. Ralph

UNIX-system (DS90) and I think that the people at Oracle have really made an effort here. (What they have not done will be properly bug-reported and corrected (?) ) This product is available on the Mac, requires 2 Meg of RAM and eats 5 Megs of your hard disk. If anyone wants additional information about how to contact the nearest Oracle representant, mail me, since I don't have it available until tomorrow. About the all Mac thing: [quote from small booklet] "The power of Oracle for Macintosh comes from the Oracle relational DBMS that resides on your Macintosh system, ..." Seems to me, it has to be there in all... -- Stefan Lindmark, Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden Email: d88-sli@nada.kth.se Snail-mail: Don't even bother...
