    <p>I'd recommend you use Python with a PostgreSQL backend. Now some will think this is overkill, but after watching your video and reading your site (I had to use a <a href="http://translate.google.com/translate?js=y&amp;prev=_t&amp;hl=en&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;layout=1&amp;eotf=1&amp;u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.frankcomputer.com%2F&amp;sl=es&amp;tl=en&amp;act=url" rel="nofollow noreferrer">translator</a>), I suspect the added flexibility is something you will truly enjoy by going this route.</p> <p>The reasons I'd argue for this solution are:</p> <ol> <li>Python and PostgreSQL are both great products with amazing communities when you need them.</li> <li>Both products have a bright outlook in their development paths. Since you obviously spent a lot of time and effort tweaking SPACE, I'm betting you will do the same over the next 40 years. So, the tools you choose now need to be there for you as you continue your development cycle.</li> <li>They are both free with friendly licenses.</li> <li>Cross-platform support.</li> <li>Scalability. You can use PostgreSQL installed locally and connect via socket or scale it all the way up to several servers using load balanced connection pooling.</li> <li>Security.</li> <li>Data integrity. This includes how easy it is to make your whole environment easy to backup and thus easy to restore in the event of a catastrophe.</li> </ol> <p>Whatever tools you end up choosing. I wish you the best in this project. I can tell you are working on something you truly love and that is something more of us should strive for!!</p>

    1. CO@Frank Computer: I'm sorry if I'm missing something that should be obvious to me, but I really don't understand what you are getting at in this follow-up. My mind wants to start guessing, but rather than go off in a direction that provides you no value, I decided to just ask for clarification. Sorry if it's real obvious, but I'm just not seeing it.

    2. COWell, my feeling is that if I use 3GL langs like C#, VB, or any other OOPL It's going to take me a long time to re-write this app so perhaps I could shorten the development effort with a 4GL?.. then, which 4GL would you recommend?

    3. CO@Frank Computer: I think to some degree what you are asking ends up coming down to a matter of personal preference. You know that gives an answer will have a different one. I gave you my analysis of the situation in the first answer above. Trying to fit with what I see as your primary issues I think you want to address which are: 1. Low cost. 2. Highly productive. 3. Technology that will continue to be viable for more than 10 years. 4. Scalability in case the direction of the project grows. Obviously you did an amazing job with SPACE. It looks to me like your biggest concern now can...

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
