README for the distribution of the BrioQuery and SQL*Net Installer

July 1998

BrioQuery is a query and reporting tool for accessing 
SQL databases, suchas Oracle.

BrioQuery allows you to build queries and reports 
quickly and intuitively - by clicking icons and 
manipulating objects. BrioQuery automatically 
builds an SQL query to your specifications and 
sends it to the database. 

BrioQuery then displays the retrieved data in a
tabular form. Once the results are returned to 
your Macintosh, you can use BrioQuery's
reporting and analysis tools to create your own 
custom data views.

BrioQuery and Oracle products are licensed for 
distribution only within the MIT community. MIT 
has a 50 concurrent user license for BrioQuery.
