I would suggest: for-GET about Foxpro for Mac. It had a lot of promise, but ended up being buggier than buggy, and slower, too. (No wonder) Microsoft dropped it like a hot potato. Personally, I was one of the casualties, having developed a cross-platform accounting system with Foxpro/Windows and Foxpro/Mac.

I then tried to do it in FileMaker, which is a GREAT database system as long as you have just a one or a few tables and don't try to program it. I then looked into 4th Dimension and Omnis, but they started to look like hot potatoes about to be dropped, and their object model (if any) was, well, awful (at least at the time I looked into it).

My two cents: do it web based, using VFP7 and West Wind (first cent), or write it in Windows bundle it with Virtual PC 5.0 (second cent).
