Rather than debate the perfection (or lack thereof) of those 
databases that are relational, let's just recognize that there are 
programs that attempt to be fully compliant with all the rules of the 
relational model, and then also recognize those programs that do not 
make any presumption as to their being able to automatically, without 
user programming, maintain and enforce data integrity which is a 
basic presumption of a relational database. ProVUE has never 
attempted to portray Panorama as having these features but has 
instead promoted its ability to imitate portions of the relational 
model via powerful lookups, Post commands, etc.
