Message-ID: <3618@tukki.jyu.fi> Date: 1 Mar 90 15:00:09 GMT Reply-To: sakkinen@jytko.jyu.fi (Markku Sakkinen) Organization: University of Jyvaskyla, Finland Lines: 14 One of our students is presenting a possible extension of QBE (Query By Example) to handle nested (non-first-normal-form) relations as a part of his thesis work - no implementation is planned. We have not noted any such suggestions in the literature. Has anybody else? (If I get valuable answers by e-mail instead of the newsgroup, I'll summarise them here after some time.)
