Regarding CLARION:  I too use CLARION and feel it is by far the best database
program for users who wish to create applications which can be distributed to
others without royalty fees.   If you just want to put data in and search on it
I would probably choose another package like paradox.  But if you want to create
applications (menus, tables, forms, reports) which can be used by others, CLARION
is it.  Its application generator is truley a wonder.  I can create database 
applications 10 times faster with CLARION than with other programs (this is no 
exaggeration!).   There have been several reviews on CLARION in PC Magazines. If 
you are serious about getting a database, I would give them a call and get there
information packet.  I don't know their number off hand, but they are located in
Pompano Beach Florida.    Try it, you'll like it.
