Showing my ignorance by not knowing who Ann Harrison was, I Google'd her. I found this post on the Firebird website. A bit of history about Firebird (or rather Interbase). It was very entertaining to read. A pity one can't start software companies like that any more. :-) It sure does sound like they had fun though. http://www.firebirdsql.org/en/ann-harrison-s-reminiscences-on-interbase-s-beginnings/ -- Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://fpgui.sourceforge.net _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
