This question concerns database programs for the PC.

I am looking for either Public Domain or Shareware database programs for 
the PC, preferably similar to dBase.  If anyone has any recommendations for
their favourite I would like to hear from you.

I have looked at Freebase (available via FTP from Simtel20) and found it 
difficult to learn unless you already know dBase, so documentation is very 
important.  Also, if you have any recommendations for Wampum, or Jim Button's
PC-File program I would like to hear what you have to say.  

Please E-Mail me and I can summarize to the net later for the benefit of all.

Barbara.
