RE: data entry

This is what I've been doing with a personal project at home.  Since I do a
lot of development in Access but wanted to give PostgreSQL a try.  The big
problem with using Access is paying for the license.

How about a good BASIC & PostgreSQL combination to give you something along
the lines of Ardent's UniVerse?  Anyone?

I've got several applications where I use a PostgreSQL database running on a
Linux server with a MS Access front end application running on the
individual PCs.  It was pretty painless to build, although knowing something
about Access would have been nice, and it provides a nice user interface for
the individuals that enter the data.  Then I have Perl CGI scripts written
on the server to provide read only reports to the web site.
