Question about the Business Macintosh

Post #117,142 by Nightowl 9/8/03 11:07:50 PM Reply	Question about the Business Macintosh Does anyone happen to remember what database program the Business Mac would have been using in about 1992? I can't seem to remember the name of it, but I worked on it in 1992 on a Business Mac. It wasn't still Appleworks was it? Did they make one for the Mac? Any help is appreciated.

Anyone else know if it was around before 1992? Nightowl >8# "I learned to be the door, instead of the mat!" "illegitimi nil carborundum" Comment by Nightowl

Here's a history of FoxPro and Filemaker...
