[comp.unix.xenix] Info needed on form management packages

george@mnetor.UUCP (George Hart) (04/25/87)

I'm looking for a list of form/screen management products (for in data
entry, structured DBMS queries, etc.).  The products should be capable
of running in an AT/Xenix environment.

Thanks for your trouble.

One of the easiest packages I've come across is called 

	Filepro +
	Small Computer Co.
	New York
	914-398-9290

The Over all approach is aimed toward user-friendliness, without
sacrificing power. Much easier to use and much more versatile
than Dbase XX plus, the data base can be moved across many minis,
UNIXs and DOS without having to restructure or reformat. In most
cases, the programs will slide across as well. There are built-in
functions to read or create spin-off files to WordStar and
Multiplan. The is no SQL at this time, although I have heard it
may be in the works, but getting info in or out is easy to do.

The programs can import or export outside program results, and
the data can be readily accessed from outside programs also.
The price is about $1995 for Xenix/Unix on AT's, other pricing
for minis and mainframes. 

I have no connection with Small save for having used their
product (and other DBMs) and have been both impressed and
satisifed.
