Best Database Software?

timdogman
I'm quite new to creating and managing databases - yesterday I installed Filemaker Pro 9 and my initial thoughts are that it's amazing! Only just starting to get to grips with it - think it'll take some time to master it.

What Database software do others use and what do people think of Filemaker Pro? Advantages/Disadvantages?

I never used file maker pro before. I've only used oracle and mysql and MS access. I think one disadvantage to filemaker pro is that its not as widely used as others and maybe the cost too. But I have not personally used it so I dont know how good it is and if its worth the money when mysql is free depending on what type of licence I think. Is filemaker pro similar to acess with a GUI?

  6. Forum Database
    Forum Database Space and its capacity to hold content (9)
    Okay, I have a forum which is growing daily. Even though members aren't that many, I'm still
    concerned over my database space and its capacity to hold the forum's content. Since post counts
    take up database space, the remaining space will decrease daily, albeit by little amounts. Still, it
    will decrease anyway and eventually my database for that forum will run out of space. My question
    is: 1. Is there any way to possibly create a new database to continue holding the old
    database's increasing data? As in, my old database is there but its full and I creat....
