Whether you're a database novice or expert, the /rdbX X Window interface lets you point and click to query your database, perform updates and interactively create reports and new databases, increasing productivity dramatically. You don't have to learn a complex query or report generation language. With /rdbX a database administrator can set up preformatted reports, or you can easily customize your own reports. /rdbX provides one simple consistent look and feel to the leading relational database management systems. You can share database query results easily with other applications such as image processors, CAD/CAM packages and desktop publishers. /rdbX lets you take full advantage of your open computing system to access local and networked databases in a multi vendor environment. features benefits ------------------------------------------------------------ intuitive, graphical interface + eliminates the need to for database use learn new query and report writing languages consistent interface to + reduces the support leading systems backlog of database administrators and MIS + improves productivity by making databases easier to use graphical database + reduces training time design tools + allows experts and novices alike to easily create and maintain databases flexible licensing + additional users get limited features instead of being locked out completely + Multi-page forms: + Custom window layout: + Action commands (buttons) not tied to fields: + Live updates: + Automatic tiling and sizing of choice lists: + Adding and deleting fields on the fly: + Choice lists available in row/column filters: + Cut/Paste to/from other applications + De-coupled command sets - interface to other database systems: + Using the Shell and /rdb as a 4GL + /rdb comes with a vi-like multi-user table editor with numerous front-end validation features that uses a screen definition file with a format similar to the report formfile described below. + Parallelized searches are accomplished on an ad hoc basis by splitting tables across several networked machines.
