Thanks for your suggestions. MySql, PostGRESql, or SQLite are OK. But my question was whether I shall be able to port all my "Foxpro for DOS" programs to linux platform. Is reverse engineering an option? Otherwise, I have to rewrite all my projects. That is a tedious task. I do not know about SQLite. What are its differences from MySQL? Rajib --
