Hi to all!
I´m really new on REALbasic (and I hope to continuing being new for at
least 2 years), so I hope to be in the correct list (I was some
confused while choosing the correct list) -if not, please, tell me-
Now, I'm programming since 10 years ago, but ever being involved on
databases (begining with Clipper, if someone remenbers), the latter
thing was about FileMaker. By other part, I also use a lot AppleScript.
I define myself as self-taugth person (I learn better from examples
than from the better courses, although I give also a choice to the
books. My target to use REALbasic is because I'm preparing a cathalogue
of the products that I sell (nothing involved on computers) and, ater
trying with FileMaker I saw a lot of things that my final clients
(almost 99% PC users) doesn´t like and that FileMaker doesn´t give me
the choice to use another thing. I tested 4D, but, because I found on
some clients that the 4D Runtime takes a while to start, and because
it'll be a new programming language to learn, I thougth to give a
choice again to REALbasic (I know about REALbasic since v.3 or earlier).
So, my questions on this mail to the list are:
* Did I made the correect decission? (i hope yes for sure)
* I´m thinking about using REALbasic database, but also I find a little
lack of documentation about this point, Where may I find more
documentation about this?, or Do you advise me about other database?
The use I'm thinking now is to hold data (some of them relational)
about my products to be shown in an electronic cat, together with
pictures, and, eventually, modify some records, so I could change
prices, or other data about the preferences of the final user.
I use a Mac and the Demo of REALbasic 5.2 (I like to make some tests,
and, when I'm sure to have the correct tool, purchase the license)
O.K. thank you for now, I hope to help to the list in about 2/3 years
