Thanks for the question, and I should give an accounting of why a 3
dimensional database is needed. I want to design a 3-D database which the
cells are arrayed with data from different sources (1st reason for the 3-d
structure). It is present and historical and can be duplicate information
if the data came from a different sources (2nd reason for 3-dimensions).
It can also be data that is either alphameric, .jpeg (any picture format),
.wav (or any audio/video format), but in the end all of the data concerns a
explicit and specific subject (3d reason for three dimensions).
