YourGod Posted July 11, 2002 Posted July 11, 2002 Yo y'alls... a friend of mine & me need a database program somewhat similar to ms access (or ms access itself) to finish our PA website ( http://www.xenotrout.com/xt/arco ) - any one got any advice?
YourGod Posted July 12, 2002 Author Posted July 12, 2002 ms access would work - but only if we could find a place to dl it - prefferably free;)
setsuko Posted July 15, 2002 Posted July 15, 2002 If you need a database, why settle for anything but the best? Learn some php and use MySQL, you won't find any handier databases around.
FunClown Posted July 18, 2002 Posted July 18, 2002 If you want a database thingy for free why don't you try Star Office Version 5.2 and download the extra database option. I havn't tried the database but I'm pretty sure it would be good enough plus its free. I think you have to pay for Version 6.0 of StarOffice however. Try http://www.staroffice.org
FunClown Posted July 20, 2002 Posted July 20, 2002 Sorry dude, Star Office is no longer a free download. A shame because I never got around to downloading and installing the database thingy. Thats a shame.
YourGod Posted July 20, 2002 Author Posted July 20, 2002 thanks y'alls...i found a friend who had the Office XP CD, so problem solved:) i guess this thread can be removed or whatever now.
setsuko Posted July 20, 2002 Posted July 20, 2002 [propaganda] I still don't understand why you don't use mySQL. It is the most popular open source database, and believe me, there's a reason why. Damn handy. And free ! The GNU GPL own3z hj00! [/propaganda]
