- Dimensional Software of Aliso Viejo, California today announced an external
- package for 4th Dimension the relational database development software from
- ACIUS Inc. of Cupertino, California. dbTimer allows a 4th Dimension global
- procedure to be placed into the background and set to run at a user specified
- time of day or interval of time. Multiple procedures can be placed into the
- background each configured to run at a different time or interval. Using this
- package users could be automatically logged off a database at certain times
- of day to allow database backups to be performed or procedures could be run
- that make connections to other mainframe computers at preset intervals to
- update the local or remote databases. This package could also be used to
- access laboratory equipment at certain intervals and gather data to be
- processed by the database.
-
- The procedures placed into the background can perform any operation available
- through the 4th Dimension language and are only limited by the developers
- imagination. Dimensional Software also includes SimpleMail, a simple
- electronic mail program implemented using 4th Dimension and dbTimer.
