Good day --
This may not be the ideal forum for this queston, but here it goes?
I would appreciate some objecive/subjective opinions or URLs showing
comparsions
I've never used any Fox Pro, or Visual Fox Pro.
I used M-Access access on a couple different jobs.
Recently I been tinkering with a trial version of Filemaker-5.5, and
I'm not sure it is truely relational? Or a SQL database? For intance
there's no easy why to create a join between 3 tables? Or creating new
tables with select into statements? Or is it just me?
between MS-Access,Visual Fox Pro and Filemaker?
The version of Access I used a couple of years ago seems to have been more robust than the current version of FileMaker?
The one advantage seem to be price?
Filemake-5.5 = $239
Filemaker-5.5 Dev = $449
MS-Access2000 = $309
Visual Fox Pro-7.0 = $497
TIA,
David Jackson
