Equilibrium LLC with Avanquest USA MyDataBase 6.5.0.0: WOW - I can't believe what an amazingly negative review. I actually searched on this software to find the POSITIVE reviews on it! This is the only negative review I have found. I think the MyDatabase software (compared to Maximizer, Organizer Deluxe and MS Access) is really great. I did not experience ANY of the problems the above reviewer had. HOWEVER: The developer does need to create an auto-backup feature (say every 3 mins or nominated time by user), as it is easy to exit the programme, forgetting to save first. The exit prompt for saving is not good enough by itself. (2) The screen colours (a type of almost baby-blue) are a bit horrible (I totally disagree with the other reviewer that the colours are a good point). But these windows shell colours can simply be turned off, at the properties menu within MyDatabase. In short, this is very good software and fills a great big whole in the DB software market.
