Hi,

I don't think we can say that there is one best xtra to manage database in Director. 
There are a couple of choices and the final choice depends on what you want to do with 
your text and images:
- Is your project Mac and Win?
- Do you plan on publishing it on the web?

Here is a list of the few best xtras to manage database:
- V12-DBE (www.integrationNewMedia.com) - good performances, really good tech support, 
manuals and samples
- Valentina (www.paradigmasoft.com) - good performances
- Datagrip (www.datagrip.com) - just windows

How do you plan on segmenting your text? One big giant record? one record per page, 
per paragraph...?

Hope it helps.

Regards,
