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 C=
trieve.  I have heard of Btrieve but never Ctrieve.  I am guessing that Ctr=
ieve was invented as a database for punch card computing?  Or it was invent=
ed for two or three guys running a BB on an IBM 386 using Windows 3.1 syste=
m 20 years ago?  Someone tell me that ComputerEase is not running on a dino=
saur database that even the creator of it has died without leaving document=
ation for it!

Thanks for allowing me to vent...
