Yes, it could. I have recently had a look on Lazarus, but I'm totally exasperated about the lack of documentation -- and don't get me started on the Zeos. How the heck do you find the right version and install it on a Gentoo system? Back in the old days, I actually did a lot of serious programming in Turbo Pascal. I was delighted to find Lazarus, but after breezing through the tutorial, I'm still at a total loss about how to actually use it with a database. Guess I'll stick with Python and Tkinter, as it's at least got some decent documentation. -- Leif Biberg Kristensen http://solumslekt.org/ ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
