I have never used Xcase so I can't comment on that part.

Yes.. It is quite flexable in that manner. The Database Sync options allow
you to do all the Database/Table manipulation in the Modeling Program and then
write those changes out to the Database.

We dont have any complex or concatenated indexs so unfortunately I cant comment
oh that part. It handles the PK/FK's that we use as well as the RI's
that we need.

One of the Major things with the Infomodeler is that it doesnt just
work with Visual Foxpro. It was very attractive to us in that it
would allow us to use it as we migrated up to SQL Server, or Informix
or whatever.

I dont know what Visio is going to do with the product now though... I
can only keep my fingers crossed that they'll do right by it...


TIA!!
