If that makes you happy, Robert, I'll go along with it. I do  
understand your point.

Panorama is not a relational database gef. However, its easier to  
implement and maintain many real world relational model data  
structures with Panorama then it is to implement and maintain those  
same data structures using many relational databases, and its  
certainly just as easy to do so with Panorama as with FileMaker.

But again, I do understand your point, Robert.
