<p>Valentina for REALbasic 1.5 Released</p>
<p>VALENTINA PRODUCT LINE UPGRADED, POWERFUL DATABASE ENVIRONMENT FOR<br />
REALBASIC AVAILABLE</p>
<p>September 3, 1999. Beaverton, Oregon. Paradigma Software made available an<br />
across the board upgrade to its database product line, in addition to<br />
introducing Valentina for REALbasic, a powerful database solution for<br />
REALbasic developers. The update added significant SQL programmatic<br />
functionality and performance improvements through the enhancement of the<br />
Valentina database kernel.</p>
<p>Paradigma Software released a new product, Valentina for REALbasic,<br />
allowing developers using REAL Software's REALbasic rapid application<br />
development environment to create powerful, database-oriented applications<br />
for the MacOS. Valentina for REALbasic allows creation of smaller<br />
applications that can handle very large amounts of data in multiple, open<br />
databases, and perform search and sort queries using SQL. Valentina for<br />
REALbasic is available immediately at an introductory price of $99. After<br />
October 1, 1999, the price will be $199.</p>
<p>Valentina, the "Applescriptable" mini-server for MacOS, was upgraded to<br />
version 1.5. This upgrade makes SQL functionality accessible via<br />
Applescript, as well as adds numerous fixes and performance enhancements.<br />
Valentina 1.5 also incorporates a visual browser for the creation and<br />
management of object-oriented databases. Valentina 1.5 is priced at $49.<br />
Owners of Valentina 1 can upgrade for free to version 1.5.</p>
<p>Valentina SDK was upgraded to version 1.5 and also includes programmatic<br />
SQL functionality, allowing Macintosh and Windows C++ programmers to<br />
harness the power of the Valentina database kernel. Upgrades from version 1<br />
of the SDK are free to registered users.</p>
<p>The product line is built on the ultra-fast Valentina database kernel. The<br />
kernel has been tested as indexing and searching 100-500 times faster than<br />
many popular Macintosh-based databases on the market, and with sorting<br />
tests ranging up to several thousand times faster. It supports fields of<br />
type boolean, byte, short, ushort, long, ulong, string, date, time, BLOB<br />
and ObjectPtr. Database files can be up to 4 GB in size, and up to 4<br />
billion records per table. Its support for BLOB objects allows for storage<br />
of almost any binary datatype, including graphics and video.</p>
<p>The Valentina product line is available for immediate download from the<br />
