I'm also looking at implimenting an image database with both Mac and Windows clients. Oracle is our corporate standard and I would prefer to keep our development with that product. Oracle as a RDBMS can certainly do the job the question I'm having is choosing a front end product. Do I have to reinvent a lot of image management tools (zoom, compression,etc.) or is there a cross platform application that has these functions built in. I have yet to get a full blown demo of SQL*Forms 4.0. Anyone else have more info?
