Newsgroups: comp.os.386bsd.apps Subject: Database/forms? Message-ID: <CADnpp.CAM@nocusuhs.nnmc.navy.mil> Date: 18 Jul 93 20:32:12 GMT Sender: news@nocusuhs.nnmc.navy.mil (Netnews Admin Account) Organization: NMIMC Lines: 18 Nntp-Posting-Host: 131.158.52.200 X-News-Reader: VMS NEWS 1.24 Anyone know of a database & forms generator that compiles easily and works? I see Postgres out there for the database engine, but don't know what to do for the forms generator. There HAS (I hope) to be something! It seems silly to have to rely on dBASE III+ to do something as basic as maintain a simple database (flat file). Ultimately, looking for something to: 1) Allow specification of file/table (specify field definitions) 2) Define data entry/edit screen 3) Handle data entry/edit Am I just dreaming? Does nothing like this exist? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Phil Perucci, Systems Programmer | "I don't speak for any organization ssb1pzp@imcvms.med.navy.mil | and no organization speaks for me" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
