Well, more bounced mail, so here goes...

Subject: ISAM for the Amiga

You should be able to use almost any ISAM C library.  Just scan
through any MS-DOS programming journal for ads.  I have used
SoftFocus's Btree/ISAM libraries with success.  I have not been
able to get the variable length records to work, though :-/
Also, another one I have thought about is C-Index/PC by Trio Systems.
There are also some PD ISAM files, but they may take some work on your 
part to make them easily usable.

Peacock Systems has a program called CBTree using B+trees ($99 US).
They have advertised in Amazing Computing. Address is 2108-C Gallows
Road, Vienna, Virginia, 22182  phone (703)847-1743

Hope this helps.

CBTree says in the manual that it'll work with the Amiga.  I've got it, but
haven't had a chance to check it out on Amiga DOS.

Another alternative would be to check out MIX Software's database toolkit.
You can get it with source code for around $20.  They're the people who make
a $20 C compiler for the PC.  Check out C Users Journal for an ad from them.

From the desk of Sean Reifschneider.  Isn't Amiga UUCP great?  Thanks Matt.
