[dba-Tech] Dearly Departed Databases (R.I.P.)

Enable! F******k! I remember that morceau de merde! A nice try, but rather
like I behave when playing baseball and called upon to bat. I hope for a
walk! LOL. It's not strictly a hand-to-eye issue since I can play badminton
and table-tennis... something about baseball defeats me! And so for Enable.
They assembled all the pieces and they worked, sort of. But ohhh God, would
you live in that environment? Not I! Reminded me too much of VisiON
(remember that dinosaur?) 

Tanks for the memories, Jeff! I had completely forgotten about that baby.

I remember having to convert 50 or so 'programs' from Enable to Access back
in 1999.  The understanding was that Enable was not going to be usable after
Y2K.
