Hello.
I just discovered Firebird early this morning, and have spent a portion of today researching it. There is one question I have about it.
I'm not 100% if there is a graphic user interface or not. I've seen screen shots that look like GUI, but I'm not sure if I'd have to add a GUI myself, or if it's built into the program. Forgive me if I seem like a dunce.
What I am trying to do is find an open source alternative to FileMaker Pro. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that program; I'm just trying to find something open source like it.
Can Firebird emulate FileMaker? If so, how do I access the GUI? I need a database with drop down menus, radio buttons, check boxes, and conditional formatting. Will Firebird provide this?
Thank you! Jd
