Hiroki Paranoid (IV) Inmate From: NZ Insane since: Dec 2002	posted 06-21-2003 06:18 Hi, guys. How are you? Is it good Saturday? Tonight, national rugby team of New Zealand called All Blacks has a game against Wales. I am going to pub to watch it. I am not so keen on rugby but I love the atmospher of people watching it with drinking beer. I will do that. Anyway, do you know any web site, where I can study about database software basics? I mean I want to know the difference between Aceess2000, SQL server 2000, MySQL, Oracle and FoxPro etc. I want to compare them in details such as cost, platforms requirement, security issue and so on. Please let me know if you know. Have a good weekend. See you. Hiroki Kozai
