Hi Members:
I'm blind, running Liberty Basic on an XP Home machine. I use Random Access
files now. I want to use a true DataBase and have looked at SQL Server and
MySql as well as others and think FireBird the best. I'd be running an
Embedded version of FireBird within my system of LB Application programs for
primary storage, if I am understanding posts etc... so far. I'm just
reading this list to get some insight into how FireBird works. First,
thanks for the great work! Next, are any of you folks Low Vision or blind?
I use a screen reader which often has trouble with things like graphics and
non-text based GUI features so I'd be really glad to hear from anyone having
experience in the use of FB with a screen reader like WindowEyes.
Otherwise, hello to all and I'll continue reading until I figure out what I
need to download and how to configure and use FB on my XP Home machine.
Bye Bye for now:
Rick Farmington Michigan USA
