What are some of the pro's and con's of interbase? How does it compare to other db systems? Does anyone know of some good sites to do some research? Thanks!

It runs on all versions of Windows and also unix and linux machines. You don't need NT-server or like MS SQL-server to run it.

I recently have seen an interesting site

Melissa,

Yes, it's worth looking into -

It's a low profile, low maintenance and low resource database engine that includes trigger support (before and after action, multiple per table/view), stored procedures, is extendable via UDFs, supports multiple concurrent transactions per connection and writers never block readers! (unlike some other db systems I know).

Make sure to have a good look!
