Access ELF: the amazing software that lets you communicate with Microsoft Access in plain English

You're not a database expert and you don't want to be. But that shouldn't stop you from having instant access to the vital business or personal information in your Microsoft Access databases. With Access ELF, anyone who can type questions in simple English can create complex queries.

Access ELF is made to order for Access users who aren't SQL experts. Which customers have placed fewer than 10 orders? Given enough time, maybe you could find a way to get this answer. But why wait? Graph the number of seafood orders by each customer. Just click! Access ELF gives you the information you need right away. How about: Which customers have ordered tofu but not Longlife tofu? or Make a list of the clients that use Federal Shipping exclusively. These questions might puzzle even an experienced programmer. Access ELF handles them easily.

Access ELF understands your plain-English questions and translates them in seconds into SQL, the native Access language. Just type your query, click a button, and see the answer flash on screen. You select whether to show the result as a datasheet, a form or a graph.

Access ELF customizes itself to your database with the push of one button. There are no long "word-definition" dialogs -- it includes its own 16,000 word dictionary. The system is completely customizable. You can add words, phrases, even edit the system grammar if you choose. But Access ELF is so easy to use, right out of the box, you may never need to. Think of it...you might never write SQL code again. With the facts you need right at your fingertips, you'll use your information resources more productively than ever before.

And for VB programmers . . . VB ELF - it's here!
English Language Frontend for Visual Basic Developers

Take a few minutes to look at our natural-language Internet (Active Server Pages) database demo -- just click the elf!

VB ELF INTERNET DEMO
Add natural language database query capability to any Visual Basic database application, with just a few lines of code. Plus .OCX controls for VB and Delphi ... you can even snap one onto an Access form!

Developer's Edition Deluxe (with full VB source code and OCX source) Download direct from our server.

Developer's Edition -- OLE server and OCX versions (without source).

VB Programmer's Version -- OLE-server natural language kit for VB projects only (no OCX/no source).

Stand-alone, single-user version -- For plain-English access to your databases, when you don't have access to Access.

Internet Server License -- Let the whole world log on to your database, in plain English, with economical per-server licensing of our OLE Language Engine. It's the same software that powers our popular Web demos!

No royalties or runtime charges, ever.

You've never seen anything like this. Type "Compare the number of orders, showing the employee name and product." - click Graph response, and see a crosstab (3-dimensional) graph appear in seconds... completely customizable. Type "Graph the high, low, and close for XYZ stock on June 30th of each year." and instantly have a view of your trend. Type "Which employees have birthdays during the next month?" and get an action list in a heartbeat. And you can build this into any Visual Basic application, including those that work from ODBC databases like SQL Server, Oracle, Sybase SQL Anywhere, OR from Paradox, dBase, FoxBASE or Excel data.

Writing ad hoc queries can eat up a lot of time better spent on developing applications... and your programming skills. Here's a tool that finally relieves this day-to-day burden. You shouldn't have to be the intermediary between your department and their data.

Today, tougher business requirements are driving an explosive demand for end-user information access. Companies must bridge the gap between the way business users work and the way technology works to achieve their goals. With VB ELF embedded into your database projects, all users can help themselves to the information they need.

What's more, there are no per-user or other royalty charges. For less than the cost of a single-user license of our competitors' software, you obtain the right to embed VB ELF in any and all of your distributable .exe files. For just about the cost of one single-user license of English Wizard, you can purchase an additional Internet Server License for VB ELF, allowing you to English-enable your Web databases. If you need help getting your database on the Web, or setting up our language frontend software, that comes at no additional charge.
