Recently I noticed a sophisticated database toolkit for Microsoft Windows
programmers on FTP.CICA.INDIANA.EDU, it's called CDB for Windows.

Everything I've read sofar sounds great. There is only one little question that
keeps coming to my head:

	"What's the catch?"

It seems to me that there are a number of possibilities:

	1) Only a limited number of tables can be referenced
	2) Only a limited number of records (per table) can be stored
	3) Limited time to evaluate toolkit


Can somebody please tell me something about this toolkit? 
If you wish you can E-Mail me, I'll summerize.

Sorry for the postage of the last message. I've tried the CDBW toolkit and it seems
that only 50 records can be added to the database. 
An error-message says so. Checking the manual, one could notice that this is only
mentioned in the section ERROR-messages, which one only reads when using the
product, and so spending a lot of time in the product. EEEEEEKKK

I would also be interested in knowning the limitations of this
toolkit.
