Hi
I haven't used the others extensively (or at all in some cases) but to
say that selectable SPs are difficult in Firebird (1.5) makes me
wonder. I have found FB stored procs very easy to write, especially
select procedures. The others must be wonderful !

I have to note that I'm talking about FireBird 1.5 here, haven't used
2.0 (none of my customers use it).
Ease of programming:
MS SQL Express
MySQL
PostgreSQL
Firebird
(just look through what hoops you have to go through to write a
procedure that returns a data set, i.e. the result of a select
statement)
SQL language expressibility (built-in functions, language power):
PostgreSQL
MS SQL Express
MySQL
Firebird
Optimiser quality:
MS SQL Express
PostgreSQL
MySQL
Firebird
Administrative burden:
all similar

All the best,
