I would also appreciate any leads.  Also, any word on a similar fromnt-end
arrangement for the next version of FoxBase+/Mac?  That would be a boon to our
work, seeing as we have done most of our development in FoxBase already.  We
have Oracle for the Mac, and would be interested in using either a '386 or
Mac IIx with A/UX for an Oracle server.  Anyone have any leads on the
feasability of this (in the near future?)

Thx.
