-Original Message- From: MyLists [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] The main thing you should realize right off the bat is that Access gives you a lot of functionality with buttons and other controls and they are quite easy to control with macros and/or VBA.

Take a look at OpenOffice or StarOffice -- you may have to spend a day getting it to work, though. One of my colleagues is especially pleased with StartOffice 6.1 (think it's in Beta right now). - Rich _ Tired of spam?

It depends on what you want to do with the font end. You would always look at MyCC and SQLyog at http://www.mysql.com/products/mysqlcc/index.html and http://www.webyog.com/ respectively.

Re: front ends?
I recently found this web-based front end and am extremely impressed by it. Among other things,it lets you bookmark your sql queries. http://eskuel.sourceforge.net/ -bill Richard Nagle wrote: what would be the easy to use, gui front end for mySQL 3.23.53 (for Mac OS X ) Thanks Again, Richard - Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trouble unsubscribing?
