Hey Mike,
Thanks for the input. I shall try and consider SQL as a backend for the
system. Especially since I know so many people here on this mailing list
has done Exactly that - using SQL. However, to be truthful - I have very
little experience with doing something like that. Also, I've done the
Visual type screen design - where I drop one or more DBF's into the Env.
on a Form - which allows me to easily do Drag&Drop to layout the screen
design. I suspect that with an SQL backend - you can't do that at all...
-K-

Good reasons, but I'd suggest you use a different backend, like MySQL
instead of native DBFs. That'll suit you better in the longer run,
imo, especially if they live on the web.
