FileMaker isn't the problem; the problem comes from the volume of data

thought a nice, relational mySQL database with an ASS front end would
do the trick but I am unable to find a way to connect the two.
I agree with Kim on this one. AS's strength lies in it's
inter-application communication and control, not in creating database
clients. While I'm sure that with enough blood, sweat, and tears it
could be done there are much better alternatives: 1) have a
professional redesign your existing database so it works the way you
want, or 2) if you must go SQL, get a tool that has support for
creating database clients (e.g., RealBasic).
