Re: Information on CTRIEVE

This is the only reference to Ctrieve that Google could find.  I don't know if anyone will see this 15 years after its original posting but I was just informed that ComputerEase Construction Accounting program is running on Ctrieve.  I have heard of Btrieve but never Ctrieve.  I am guessing that Ctrieve was invented as a database for punch card computing?  Or it was invented for two or three guys running a BB on an IBM 386 using Windows 3.1 system 20 years ago?  Someone tell me that ComputerEase is not running on a dinosaur database that even the creator of it has died without leaving documentation for it!

Thanks for allowing me to vent...
