Thanks for the tip. I already have, and Ruslan has already replied. He has
graciously provided me with a URL so that I can download a DEMO version of
whichever version suits MetaCard 2.5. Which I figure is the first one in a
l-o-n-g list of versions, e.g. version 1.11
This demo version will only work about "10 minutes at a time", but one of the
respondents in this thread assured me that it was in-fact longer than 10
minutes AND that it would be sufficient to evaluate whether Valentina is for me.
As it has been for y'all, I surmise, because respondents in this thread have
been unanimously favorable to Valentina. No one reported any regret. Not
so-far, anyways. I'd like to hear from other Valentina users too, or would-be
users that were discouraged.. or whomever has something relevant to say about
Valentina. Good or bad are equally welcome. :)
I'm being so-cautious because I have dedicated hundreds of hours, testing
various databases (DBMSs), over the years, and NONE of them did the trick for
me, including XCMDs for HyperCard. This time, I want to KNOW for SURE that I'll
be headed in the right direction. :)
Thanks y'all for the heads-up, :)
Alain
