[NTLUG:Discuss] Alternative to MS Excel and MS-Access

[Bob Byron]

Alternative to MS Excel and MS-AccessYou might want to check out Firebird as a database.  It 
has some excellent features including outer joins, 
stored procedures, user defined functions, super server 
architecture.

A friend of mine wants an alternative to his windoze centric 
systems. His office mostly uses MS-Excel and MS-Access. 

I was going to suggest Open Office and Postgresql, on Linux. 

What are your suggestions? 

Thanks, 

Samy Rengasamy.
