There isn't any front end with bound controls available for the "free"
database. MySql proliferates largely due to its' usage my many hosting
companies as their in-house database offered to the hosting companies users.
Since its' purchase by Sun, and Oracles purchase of Sun, I'd think the days
of its' being free are numbered.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Question
One of my customers asked why we don't switch to a "free" data base
product like MySQL or SQL Lite.
I'm suspicious when it comes to a free lunch.
I told them that even if we did the conversion I would still need to
rewrite the frontend. All the forms, reports, graphs, object code, etc.
And, I'm dubious about the multi user capability.
Any other supportive info is appreciated.
Dennis
