]I am calling from California to find out if there are any computer

newspapers/magazines that serve the Chicago area. Most major cities,

to BILL COLEMAN re: R/FOXPRO VS PARADOX
|
|
|
|
Ok, I see. Such an application doesn't sound too hard "to me", but
|
|
then again, I've seen people program custom programs for WEEKS in Fox.
|
|
(not that I've seen anything where you can "easily" generate multi-file
|
|
applications).
|
|
If you want to spend a little time with it every night or so, asking
|
|
away here for ideas, feel free to do it.

|
to BILL COLEMAN re: YOUR DATABASE QUESTION
|
|
|
|
I have most of the database products which you (and others) mentioned.
|
|
For the application which you described, I would choose Paradox (3.0)
|
|
or Clarion. Both of these have the capability to link 2 files in
|
|
the standard manner(s). They are totally different in their approach
|
|
to development, however. Clarion leads you to somewhat of a finished
|
|
product, with maintenance screens, choice lists, etc., while Paradox (3.0)
|
|
can relate 2 tables exquisitely, but the gingerbread must be programmed
|
|
in their powerful (but non-trivial) application languages ("PAL").
|
|
|
|
If I had to get something done tomorrow, I'd use Paradox. On the other
|
|
hand, if I were concerned about the user's impressions, I'd use Clarion.
|
|
dBase and the clones are best suited for involved (but laborious)
|
|
programming. That's not to say that you can't program Clarion or Paradox,
|
|
but you will have to start from scratch with either one, to learn
|
|
their peculiar application languages. They are both fine, but
|
|
quite different.
