Smaller

scale database systems are reviewed by D.C. Hayes and J.E. Hunton in the Journal of Accountancy, January 1999, pp. 61-69.  These are useful for small business and small departments within large businesses.  Sometimes it is easier to build a small database system than to fool with a large system to handle smaller jobs.   Smaller-scale database software packages include the following: Microsoft Access at http://www.microsoft.com/products/prodref/332_ov.htm
      For MS Access helper links see http://WWW.Trinity.edu/rjensen/acct5342/helpers1.htm#Access Inprise Paradox at http://www.inprise.com/paradox/

Networked databases are exploding in popularity across the Internet.  For a review, see http://www.nytimes.com/library/tech/99/03/circuits/articles/18bots.html .  Microsoft is promoting ActiveX Data Objects (ADO).  The following is a quotation from http://www.microsoft.com/data/ado/prodinfo.htm :
