I am posting this question for wmcmahon@urc.uwm.edu. Please reply to him directly. We have a large SPSS system file (75 Mbytes). We want to access the data through a front-end, with full-screen editing and updating capabilites. If possible this should run both on the SS1 and on attached PC and Mac terminals. The idea is that someone could use the front end to add, update, and delete records, and make queries. If you know of a commercial or public-domain system that will do this, please e-mail wmcmahon@urc.uwm.edu. We are aware that new versions of SPSS allow users to read SPSS system files from several existing commercial database environments (Informix, Ingress, Oracle, etc). Is there any other alternative (we don't want to support *two* different environments).
