Access sucks as a database. Eventually, you'll want to use a real database |
| 7 |
like mysql, postgres, oracle, db2, or sybase. My personal recommendation |
| 8 |
is postgres, at least until you've outgrown it, and then db2. |

When you say OpenBase, do you mean Base from OpenOffice.org 2? |

If not, I suggest trying it out. I never have but I've heard it supposed |
| 16 |
to replace Access. |

In any case, you might try mysql + DBDesigner. I think DBDesigner is |
| 19 |
supposed to have support for other DBs, but I didn't figure that much out |
| 20 |
about it. |
