New York 914-398-9290 The Over all approach is aimed toward user-friendliness, without sacrificing power. Much easier to use and much more versatile than Dbase XX plus, the data base can be moved across many minis, UNIXs and DOS without having to restructure or reformat. In most cases, the programs will slide across as well. There are built-in functions to read or create spin-off files to WordStar and Multiplan. The is no SQL at this time, although I have heard it may be in the works, but getting info in or out is easy to do. The programs can import or export outside program results, and the data can be readily accessed from outside programs also. The price is about $1995 for Xenix/Unix on AT's, other pricing for minis and mainframes. I have no connection with Small save for having used their product (and other DBMs) and have been both impressed and satisifed.
