RE: Rollback Segments

Hey, Sql*Calc was pretty nice, but it kept changing and then they dropped it for the most part. Sql*Graph was pretty cool in theory, but never could come up with data to make it useful.

And don't forget fastform which made things so easy, and rpt as a programming language instead of for reports...

The days of micro-VAX and VAX750's. PC version fit on about 10-14 floppies, was it? I may still have them some place.

The PC-XT and Dos 3.2 and Oracle 4.1.1 which could run on 512k of memory and you could write a distributed Order Entry system on it and tie it all back to a corporate VAX, before Sql*Net. Yea, them were the days...
