[comp.sys.mac.programmer] Database runtime request

barriost@orbit.UUCP (Tim Barrios) (11/26/90)

i am new to this newsgroup so please excuse me if this has
been discussed before.

i am thinking about developing an application that could
really make use of some low-level database routines (like
making SQL-level calls).  i have done this before using
Oracle on Unix machines.

my problem is that i don't want users of the application to
have to buy a database system or even pay for a runtime
license which can run from $85 (4D) to $700 (Oracle).  are
there any database utility routines/packages that i can use
in my program without having to pay a runtime fee?

(note: please reply to email address below since posting
address is incorrect)

thanks in advance,
