Conceptual database questions...

[Bill]

By "API" do you mean RunRev's "Database Query Builder" or is it something
else? I mix direct calls, the Database Query Builder and now do everything
with Trevor's very fast and easy to understand libDatabase. The only thing I
never use is the Cursor routines as they just confused me. The arrays that
return from libDatabase are really easy to understand.

I also changed the database from MySQL to SQLite and got some speed
improvements. It is fast enough now so that I have achieved my goal of being
a little better than the original Hypercard database I am re-designing from.
