Hello all

With what database (like sql/access/muibase...) hollywood can work?

It is very very important. And with Hollywood designer, can i make userform like VBA (MS OFFICE) and link in database.

I must create tools with database and i WANT use hollywood for that...

Hollywood hasn't builtin database functionality.

So currently it is really no good idea to use Hollywood for your task.

Nonetheless I see some possibilities:

Code: Select all

1. sqlite3.library (from Scalos package)
  + rxgen.library
  + Holllywood's possibility to send Rexx commands

2. mSQL (don't mix that up with MySQL) server
  + msql.library
  + rxgen.library
  + Holllywood's possibility to send Rexx commands

3. MUIBase
   + Holllywood's possibility to send Rexx commands

userforms that automatically link to database items is definitely NOT supported.

Yes, a SQL based database backend is somezhing I also miss in Hollywood (SQLite3 would probably the best choice imho).

Maybe you could tell us, why you insist on using Hollywood for your project ?
