So far for any realworld database project I've taken on I've had to use other tools than rev. I'd love to build db frontends with it, but it's just not up to snuff. > Heres a snippet from the following RunRev web site that drew me to finally > buy the product: > http://revstudio.runrev.com/you_can_make.php#enterprise >>From the 3rd paragraph of the 4th section titled Rapid prototyping & >>database GUIs: > With full support for databases, including access to open source databases > such as MySQL, > you can build a custom database solution for your business in minutes. > Access the database using our point and click tools.

I built a test harness for the database functions and MySQL comes through fine. If you don't absolutely *need* odbc functionality you might consider going with MySQL or SQLite. Or Valentina (I had to beat Ruslan to the draw here...). If you have real clients with existing odbc databases then you're better off with some other frontend tool. -- -Mark Wieder [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
