Frank recently added a first version of a frontbase driver. He also intents on writing an MSSQL driver. > I wondering how many of you actually have used Metabase and/or Metastorage. I have used Metabase. Didn't like the API and also found that it is needlessly slow mainly due to the fact that it still supports PHP3 (which I don't need). The performance is acceptable however, but I really didn't like the API at all. > I've been trying to contact the author, Manuel Lemos but his email account > inbox is full! :-( Odd.

Well theoretically DataObjects should work with MDb through the PEAR DB wrapper. Other than that it should not be too hard to make Dataobjects MDB compatible as the APIs of PEAR DB and MDB are really similar. Regards, Lukas
