Re: WebCatalog vs Lasso or Frontier

[Jeremy Stoltz <jstoltz@xxxxxx>]

I think a lot of people either don't know or overlook the fact that Lasso
works with more then just FileMaker. It will also work with any ODBC
database. If you think FMP is too slow then use SQL server or another
multithreaded database which will meet your needs.

This also allows people who have outgrown FMP to switch to a different
database. Not only do they not have to learn a new program they don't even
have to completely rewrite the existing code, only modify it slightly.
