I would like to get more knowledge in databases. I am just in college, but I know little. I am a business and economics major, and I want to start learning some business applications.
Can anyone please tell me about some databases ? What is good to learn, dBase 4 (Ashton-Tate or Borland ?), FoxPro, Paradox, etc... ???
I know ORACLE is great, but I have no access to such an expansive application or even demo...but is Paradox better than dBase IV, or is FoxPro better, or what can give me a general overview of databases ???
Also, how about spreadsheets ? Is Lotus the same or better than Excel ?
Please email me, don't post, because it may take a while to find a reply on this base...I would appreciate a direct email reply. Thanks in advance.Received on Mon Dec 13 1993 - 18:22:18 CET
