	I'm looking for suggestions about UNIX-based relational databases
for small DB applications (a few hundred records). This system should run
on a Sun or a VAX and hopefully be user-friendly enough to allow some of
our marketing or sales group to add/modify screens on their own.

	I'm currently evaluating Empress/32 on a Sun3; the database itself
seems powerful but the screen description languauge (M-Builder) is a pain
to use. Are there other DBs that I should look at ?

	Any recommendations or horror stories would be appreciated.
