Publisher's Synopsis
There are many programmers, developers and users in corporations who are familiar with 1-2-3 and use it regularly on their personal systems. 1-2-3/M allows them the ease of use of a PC spreadsheet, and all the advantages of inputting information for that spreadsheet from the mainframe corporate database.;This book describes what databases are and why they are used, how to set up 1-2-3/M to work with databases, how to get data directly in and out of database tables through 1-2-3/M and how to set up criteria conditions in 1-2-3/M.;This is not a book for the casual user of 1-2-3. It is essentially designed for the IS professional, and/or for the programmer and analyst who will be setting up 1-2-3/M applications for less technical users.;This book should be of interest to IBM mainframe shops, most large corporations who have IBM systems as well as database users and administrators who will use 1-2-3.
