Greetings!
I'm new to ProCite ListServ--the Tech Supp folks at Procite recommended
that I contact the list for advice from the LS about search engines for
Pro-Cite on the web.
My name is Linda Pine and I am director of the Archives Dept at the
University of Arkansas at Little Rock. In addition to the Arkansas
holdings in my dept, I work with two professors who, for about twenty
years or so, have been collecting newspapers, manuscripts, ephemera, and
compiling bibliographic records related to American Native writers
(Canada and the U.S.).
Working with the bibliographic records first, using ProCite, we have
about 10,000 records entered (eventually expected to reach about 100,000
entries). Long-term, the project will include citations to the actual
holdings of the collection. The powers that be (for once) think that
this bibliography is a wonderful project and want to put the database on
the web.
The only one I have located is ShowBase Extra. According to my
research, to get the searchable fields software you also have to *pay*
for "seven languages" software. As my project co-horts pointed out, we
could buy 1.5 new computers with the cost of the SBE. If that's our
only option, they'll live with it but we'd really like to explore other
options.
If anyone has any recommendations for a web search engine, I'd be most
appreciative.
Please reply to me:
Thanks!

We are using Tango to move a ProCite database to the web in two steps -
first moving the data into comma delimited format for FileMaker Pro to
read, and then using Tango to pick up the Filemaker Pro file. The newest
version of FileMaker Pro can apparently create the web searchable database
directly.
A product similar to Tango is Cold Fusion. Both create web front ends to
standard databases that can export data using the ODBC format, which
includes most of the standard databases (Access, Paradox, etc.)
I understand ProCite is creating its own module to make ProCite data web
accessible, but that it is only in the beginning stage.
