If you want a serious bullet-proof database package which will work
with QuickBasic 4.5 or most any other compiler, try Btrieve from
Pervasive Software.  I wrote a serious multi-user inventory system
in 1987 using Btrieve, and have yet to reload the database because
of a database problem.  You tell Btrieve when a transaction begins
and when it ends, and if the program or system goes down while one
is in progress, the entire transaction is rolled back cleanly.  No
half-updated files or orphaned pointers.  Multiple multi-segment
keys, optional duplicate keys, data compression, etc.  Good stuff.
