db_VISTA: Raima’s Original DBMS
Brief History
Support for db_VISTA

db_QUERY
Two companion products for db_VISTA were introduced in 1986. Raima’s db_QUERY introduced the first SQL-like query and report writing utility for a network model database system. Today, db_QUERY no longer exists. However, Raima does offer SQL in all its DBMS products.
Raima’s db_REVISE is still included with the RDM product and is used to modify a database definition and make whatever revisions to the existing data that are necessary to accommodate the changes.
Check out the RDM online documentation. You will find that much has been added to the product capabilities over the years but you will also find that the original API is still supported, albeit with some argument differences. Thus, functions d_open, d_fillnew, d_keyfind, d_findfm, and so on are all still around. So, if you are a former db_VISTA user, please download a free evaluation copy of the latest RDM . It’s kind of like finding a long lost friend on Facebook.
