Hi Horst, Yes, it uses Interbase. Either v6.0.1.6 (The majority) or v7.5 (Just being implemented).
Using the InterBase Console, it is possible to log in and attach to the database files directly. Once there, the table contents can be read in plaintext. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Horst Herb Sent: Monday, 23 October 2006 11:24 AM To: General Practice Computing Group Talk Subject: Re: [GPCG_TALK] SQL schema for billing On Monday 23 October 2006 13:10, Jim Glaspole wrote: > I am also interested as a Medtech32 user.

Unles they deliberately obfuscate table content (eg thorugh "encryption") it should be easy to migrate or use eg via web interface. AFAIK, Medtech uses Interbase? Never seen it before outside a demonstration The database does *not* have to reside on the web server - in fact it is desirable for security reasons that it is not. To use such things through a web interface, you usually create an extra user with the least possible privileges to do that trick, and limit access to the database server from the web server to the database connection only, no other ports/services Horst _______________________________________________ Gpcg_talk mailing list [email protected] http://ozdocit.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gpcg_talk _______________________________________________ Gpcg_talk mailing list [email protected] http://ozdocit.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gpcg_talk
