Re: [vox-tech] Free cross platform database applications
Tim's tool could be the way to go, but I thought I would throw some options out there. This is using Eclipse with your database. Derby is a java database. http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Getting_Started_with_DTP Also check out Seam. It has the framework to build an application that you might be interested in. It runs in a J2EE application server such as JBOSS. You might want to take a look at GRAILS too. There is the SacGRU group. http://www.sacgru.org I still find Web based apps complex. brian On Sat, Jan 29, 2011 at 08:41:09AM -0800, jimbo wrote: > Hi Mr. Riley: > > Could you please talk more about your project possibly next Sunday over a > beer or 2? > > I am also researching something like this but in addition a web browser form > that generates repair orders and keeps customer info in a server database. > > I thought I found the silver bullet: > > http://www.formtools.org/ > > Almost what I wanted but lacking some functions.

Re: [vox-tech] Free cross platform database applications
Hi Mr. Riley: Could you please talk more about your project possibly next Sunday over a beer or 2? I am also researching something like this but in addition a web browser form that generates repair orders and keeps customer info in a server database. I thought I found the silver bullet: http://www.formtools.org/ Almost what I wanted but lacking some functions. I don't know if I have to start from scratch and get a LAMP developer as well.

Re: [vox-tech] Free cross platform database applications
Eclipse. Use the data managment tool. Works great!

I forgot to mention this should be a standalone app that can be very easily deployed on either Windows or Linux after the desired database schema and forms have been created.

Quoting Rod Roark (r...@sunsetsystems.com): > Looking for an easy-to-use open source database management tool, maybe > sort of like MS Access. 'Databases, Casual' on http://linuxmafia.com/kb/Apps/ is a place where I aggregate blurbs I've encountered about possible options. The usual disclaimer applies: I've not used them; I've only read about them. Disclaimer #2: It's been six years since I gave that page the once-over, so there may _well_ be good options not mentioned. At the time I last revised the page, this seemed to be an application category that on Linux/BSD was just beginning to flower. You will notice separate entries in the knowledgebase index for 'Databases, SQL' and 'Databases, xBase'. I divided out the original 'Databases' page into three parts, because it struck me that those types served almost completely different audiences and needs. -- Rick Moen "Has Google looked at the appropriateness of indexing r...@linuxmafia.com #WikiLeaks?

Looking for an easy-to-use open source database management tool, maybe sort of like MS Access. Basically a step up from a spreadsheet with the ability to support many-to-1 relationships between tables, present forms for the corresponding data entry and viewing, and export to CSV or similar formats. Suggestions appreciated -- perhaps the OpenOffice database component, is that any good? Thanks! Rod ___ vox-tech mailing list vox-tech@lists.lugod.org http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
