about Mac front ends for databases.  I have been looking into Sybase, trying to
get an example of their Hypercard extensions for the client portion of their
architecture.  I have attended a demo of the Sybase system, but they don't seem
to demo much more than the standard terminal client.  Admittedly, the rest of
the demo was most impressive, but the conditions are usually optimal, and run
with only one client on-line.

I suspect that Mr. Titcomb is looking for Mac front ends for Mac-based
data-bases, and the Sybase system will be too advanced for his use.  Has anyone
else seen/used the Sybase Mac-client?  Any comment on it relative to Oracle's
similar system?

Thanks
