One thing you might consider is the 'Base' application from openoffice. I'm not sure it's what you want, but it might work... In any case it's likely worth looking at. > > I prefer major (A status) programming language using classification from > > http://www.tiobe.com/tpci.htm ... wandering off topic ... > I'm not sure if I would trust a programming language ranking that is based > on search-engine results.

Well, if they're not using it, they're not going to have problems either. Having used a slew of programming languages, including some fancy, less popular ones myself, I am pretty sure that people run into problems with all of them:-) > Seconds, _any_ programming language comparision > that doesn't say in what _context_ or for which _problems_ a language is > good, and for which it is bad, is worthless IMHO. Anyone who decides solely by looking at stats is kind of silly. That said, though, I think there is some validity to these kinds of things... Here's my attempt at something similar with more data sources: http://www.dedasys.com/articles/language_popularity.html As I say, though...take things with a grain of salt. I did those stats with Tcl, and Hecl, which don't figure highly in the results;-) Saluti, -- David N. Welton - http://www.dedasys.com/davidw/ Linux, Open Source Consulting - http://www.dedasys.com/
