     What database with speech?  First, let's decide whether we mean any
file handler or relational databases only.  A flat file manager would be
something like File Express, or PFS File, where you can only look at one
file at a time.  DBase is a relational database as are PC File later
versions, R:Base, and Paradox.  On the whole, I would think that the flat
file managers would work better with speech as they're simpler.  This
doesn't always happen to be the case though.
