This is a fast, full-featured data base system. If you are a
novice PC user, its clean design and functionality will let you
develop applications quickly and easily. Yet FIRST BASE PLUS
provides the experienced user with the capability and power
needed to design and operate complex, multi-file applications.
The key to this flexibility is a choice of system levels for
application development.

file management system, utilizing system-defined displays and
report writers. Or for complex applications, you can use the
advanced system multi-file capability, with screens and reports
that you create.

supplier changes a price, and you must revise your price list,
inventory value, and supplier records at the same time.

and updating data, queries (retrieving and analyzing stored
information), reporting, and multi-file maintenance. It also
enables you to create menus that perform the applications you
develop. Menu-driven, FIRST BASE PLUS also provides you with a
memory-aid method (mnemonics) for quick, direct branching between
programs.
Features include all of those for FIRST BASE and the following:
Updates five data files simultaneously. Reports can include
numerous files,provides arithmetic operations on dates and time,
