Introduction
Welcome to V12 Database Engine (V12-DBE), the most powerful and user-friendly
cross-platform database management Xtra for Macromedia Director
and
Macromedia Authorware .
V12-DBE for Director
V12-DBE was originally designed in 1996 to be used specifically with Director. It
extends Director’s features and helps you speed up the development of your
multimedia titles. You will discover many benefits in using V12-DBE to create
interactive applications such as electronic catalogs, storybooks, kiosks, training
material, sales material, games, and more. You will be using it as a back-end to your
multimedia projects to efficiently manage text, numeric data, dates, images, sound
clips as well as any type of media that Director can store in its members.
V12 Database Engine enables you to provide advanced functionality to your end-users
while bringing down your development and maintenance costs.
V12-DBE is very flexible and scalable. It can be used in a wide range of applications;
from simple projects where Lingo Lists and FileIO have become difficult to manage, to
true database-driven applications.
V12-DBE for Director is available in Light and Regular editions. V12-DBE Light
Edition can be used with Director 6.x and later and supports Windows 95, 98, NT, and
PowerMac. V12-DBE Regular Edition runs with Director 5.x and later, and supports
Windows 3.x, 95, and 98, NT, Mac68K and PowerMac.
Lingo programmers can work through more complex projects by taking advantage of
V12-DBE Regular Edition’s rich and flexible Lingo interface to fully script both the
authoring and runtime tasks. If you are new to Lingo you may want to begin with V12DBE Light Edition to create more simple projects. Both Regular and Light Editions
are fully compatible with each other. You can start using V12-DBE Light Edition, and
later easily upgrade to V12-DBE Regular Edition.
If you are looking for a fast and easy way to integrate V12-DBE into your multimedia
projects, you may be interested in using the V12-DBE Tool and V12-DBE Behaviors
Library, both freely available at http://www.integration.qc.ca.
An Online Companion is also available for V12-DBE. It enables the management of
V12 databases through the Internet. You can learn more about it at
