I am going to develop a program and I am going to need some type of database
engine to drive it. It will be made on DOS running windows. I had thought of
using Informix/SQL (ESQL/C). I would like to stick to a SQL language, but I
am open to suggestions.
What I would like to know, what is the general opinion of this group to which
server is the best to use?
Thanks!

Have you decided on the transactions the front end will require? If this is going to work single user on a single machine with no care about the coherency of a networked DBMS then there are a wealth of neat DBMS to play with. If you need to exist in a network communicating with many others for whom DBMS coherency, accessability, and updateability is paramount then... What's this thing supposed to look like? -- Dave Fuller Sequent Computer Systems Think of this as the hyper-signature. (708) 318-0050 (humans) It means all things to all people. dafuller@sequent.com
