b. fast track

availability of wordprocessing and spreadsheet software

We have an abridged version of the Martin Butler/Robin Bloor evaluation
of VAX databases. That abridged version compares Oracle, Ingres,
Sybase, Adabas, and Rdb.
The complete Butler report includes Progress and Informix as well, I
think. The complete report is available from ButlerBloor in London.

Also check BROKE::DB_COMPETITIVE_HELP and you should get slide show
number 863 for a presentation of Rdb and its integration with other
information management products. It is an excellent presentation.
