Forgive me if my question is already answered, as i started reading this group recently. We are planning to purchase a data-base oriented package. The seat- uation is as follows o Should be compatible with MSC 6.0 o Should be preferably in C o Should do things which Clipper does ( I have Sum-87, which is MS 5.0 and it *Bombs* with MSC 6.0 so can't use it ) o Preferably should have mouse interface ( I heard dLESKO's FUNKEY has one ) but this is *not* rejecting criteria. o Should be around $200-225. Codebase 4 is the package i have heard a lot from different sources and it seems to work out well in above criterias ( Don't know about Mouse ) What basically i want to do is, interface a *strictly* MSC 6.0 compa- tible package with Codebase 4 or what ever. And i need to use good amount of database files ( Hence looking for something which uses .DBF format ) As we are short of funds ( as usual ;-( ), but we don't want to waste availabe dow, i need comments && || suggestions && || experiences about Code - base 4 ( It is Canada based company ) && || ANY OTHER PACKAGE which you want to suggest . I would really appreciate for any help. Thanks in advance. You can directly mail me if you like. I will summarize if i get sufficient replies. Thanks a lot ! --Sudhir ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sudhir Mahableshwarkar University of Cincinnati Email: 2920 Scioto St, #611, Oh 45219 smahabal@uceng.uc.edu (H) 513-556-8451 (O) 513-556-3698,2987 sudhir@ucunix.san.uc.edu ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
