Mike: I remember StarDesignor from PowerBuilder days mid-'90s thereabouts. Had completely forgotten.
Awesome, and thank you.

You can design your database using a GUI from an old program that the RBase users have the use rights that I secured some years ago. The program StarDesignor will allow you to design the DB in a GUI and then will generate SQL code to create a db. You can download it from my website: www.byerley.net > click on the Software tab > select MiscUtils under Software Categories. There are two selections: One is a disk Image Install where you will have to desemintate the files to their appropriate locations on disk manually which is a bandaid for systems where the installer might hiccup. The other is a regular install. I haven't tried to install on anything above WinXP, but it works fine there. It was way ahead of its time when it was issued and I still use it on occasion. It can reverse engineer a db by using ODBC driver to connect also. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bruce A.
