[comp.databases] FOXbase library?

a_dent@fennel.cc.uwa.oz.au (01/14/91)

I've seen a number of ads for commercial dBase libraries but none for FOXBase.

I know FOX have a proprietary indexing format, because they tell me in their
manuals (and I believe them).   I need to write a multi-user database for
handling pictures, on the Mac, and also need an integrated database engine
to plug into an existing program.  I would be happy to convert a PC product
to Mac (eg:  extend for PICTure handling) but I'm sure it would have to be
capable of accessing FOXBase+/PC indexes to start with.

Any comments?
