I am looking purchase the software package FoxBase+. I would like to create a data base from which I can relate data that correlates wolf behavior. I would also like to generate graphs and tables. If anyone knows anything about the package, I would greatly appreciate hearing about it. I'm having difficulty getting good information from the vendors. Please send responses to schlenke@arthur.cs.purdue.edu Thank you.

It wouldn't be kosher for me to recommend dBASE when you say you want FoxBase. But I can throw you a curve: Have you considered a spreadsheet package like 1-2-3 or (Ashton-Tate's) Framework? They have simple flat-file data base capability with easy built-in graphics. Framework even has a word- processor with outlining, which would let you concentrate on the wolves and not juggle a lot of different products. End of commercial :-). /alastair/
