Hi. I am running SCO UNIX Sys V Rel. 3.2. I am looking for a SIMPLE version of some sort of SQL database system. Something like ORACLE is WAY WAY too much. I have a need to set up a couple of SIMPLE tables that will have 500 - 700 entries and maybe 50 - 75 columns (fields) per record. I will want the system users to be able to run some CANNED queries on this data base that use relational operators. I guess what I THINK I want is simply an SQL engine that will allow me to interface with it with C code. I would write the queries and menus in C. I am not against a smarter RDBMS if the price is right and the learning curve is short. I have access to ORACLE and the volume of manuals and system overhead are WAY WAY too much. I have heard that a product called dBVista is something close to my needs. Comments/suggestions are welcomed. -- Al Borup - Programmer/Analyst | Boise Interagency Fire Center | 3905 Vista Avenue | {...}!uunet!mkcgad1!drot-a!master Boise, ID 83705 | (208) 389-2480
