Database Change

The Internet Version currently runs with an Oracle database server. The new Internet version and the PC version use Microsoft Access. The reasons for the change are:


Consequences of Database Change

• Modifications are required to the application as well as the data entry program.

• Some functionality is not yet available with the new database. This includes unit conversions.

Consequences of Database Change

• Modifications are required to the application as well as the data entry program.

• Some functionality is not yet available with the new database. This includes unit conversions.


Database Change

1. The amount of data stored in the database is smaller than originally anticipated.

2. Oracle is difficult to manage without a lot of experience, and therefore is not a good

solution for the PC version.3. Allows for one program to maintained for

both the Internet and PC.4. Access is cheap and easy to manage.
