sorry I think is due to all posters who answered my badly posed question.
The reason I asked about the comparisons of the databases against M$ Access is that I have used it to create a database of some 20000 http links and I am looking at moving it toward a linux solution. HOWEVER the winner must have a decent user GUI interface to add records/create forms etc ie something that is close to the look and feel, without the BSOD :), to M$ Access for the storing of large tables and being able to produce reports/forms on a certain portion of the records.
Comments please, but do be kind...
well.. none of them come with built in guis, but there are lots of utilities available to manage the database and records. you may want to look at a combination of mysql and open office. this is supposed to be able to act as an access replacement. -- trey
