I see. I've heard that MS Access is OK, but Oracle is much better. For PC apps (VB on Win95/NT) do you have a preference? Are there any relational database programs which port from PC to unix? My program apps (neual nets) access legacy databases on PC and unix. I have a crude ascii version of the program that accesses flat files on PC and unix. These are very portable but large and slow to work with. I need to upgrade. My app is made to plug into a database. Is there one you know about which crosses PC-Win, NT, RISC, SiliGraph, Apollo, Sun, HP, VAX, and mainframe OS systems? Received on Mon Sep 15 1997 - 00:00:00 CEST
