Thanks Monty, I just heard it in passing at a delphi user group
meeting. I am not sure which OS it was in connection with.
However, a further query. Does MySql support transation
processing?
Do you recommend MySql as the best freeware (for
non-commercial) DBMS on the market? Sorry this is
probably too broad a question. But if you have any comments
it would be appreciated. I guess for me the other option at the
moment is interbase 4 which is offered free for the linux platform
I understand.
Thanks
