I am thinking about writing a database and want a very customized product.
For various reasons I don't want to use a database manager program.  I
would prefer to write my own and I don't want to use C or Turbo.  Reasons
are good but long.  So BASIC seems to be the answer but it should be
compiled.  Between the two well know models Quick BASIC and TURBO BASIC
which would be the best?  Does one have better libraries than the other for
this sort of task?  Has anyone used one of these programs for this reason?
How did it work?

Thanks.

Jack
