Things coming to my mind immediately: - on unix'ish systems (g)dbm is what dbase is on dos/windows - a reason for asking for linux users may be viewing it as the most simple file centric transfer format or common format for use with both, linux and windows - many people are afraid of or have too much respect for a full grown sql server - quite a lot unix/linux programs support dbase as an import and export format (well documented) besides the sometimes tricky .csv format My 2 cent Marc --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
