Maybe I'm a bit naive when it comes to databases, but I have all the children and their parents and so on, in a database that consists of a Livecode stack and nothing else.
But then, in 1989 I had all the kids at Madrasa Emirat al-Khasa school, Al Ain, UAE in a database written and run on my BBC Master and stored on a single 800 kb floppy disc; so anything after that has got to seem better. So, I am really interested to know why so many folk seem interested in using Livecode to write database front-ends rather than using Livecode for the database as such. One of Bill Atkinson's initial premises was to make Hypercard non-linear, so setting up a relational database should be 'pips'. sincerely, Richmond. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
