With 12 users dbf will be damn slow. I will recommend opting in for backend database systems like firebird mariadb mysql etc. There are more users for firebird on the newsgroup but I am using mariadb and will recommend mariadb/ mysql for a simple reason. If i future you go for web versions the same data can be used without and conversion. Most websites use mariadb/mysql. There is effort involved in conversion but the gain in speed is worth the conversion. Regards Akshat | |
