I have been using Ecco since 1995.  In the past I have worked with Compusol.  I am using  version 4.01 32 bit.

I've been using it since 2001. Thanks for mentioning that you've been using it since 1995; I thought I was the only one who has been using it for such a long time.

I have been using ECCO since 1996. Originally, I bought the stripped-down version named "ECCO Simplicity." Then I changed to ECCO Pro, which I have been using ever since. I'm keeping a Windows XP machine up and running mainly so that I can use ECCO. However, being disgusted with how Microsoft conducts themselves, I have migrated to Linux. I want to try running ECCO under Wine, but am facing difficulty in installing Wine into Mint with the XFCE desktop (as I write this, the main program file cannot be found on the main Wine web site).
 
I have been considering either (a) moving all my data into more current applications that run smoothly in Linux, or (b) moving my antique ECCO into the Linux/Mint environment. So far, the jury is still out. (I was able to install Wine very neatly into a Fedora installation from Fedora's own program repository, but will probably be abandoning Fedora for Mint).
 
I understand that ECCO was developed to be a showcase application for a database language. I'd hate to abandon ECCO: in my experience, the program is unique, especially in its open-ended structuring.
 
I have never seen any explanation for what the name "ECCO" stands for. Does anybody know?

My memory must be wrong because I remember buying Ecco Pro before its stated release date!  So far, it has migrated through all the Microsoft operating systems since then.  The most recent crash, however, has me needing a new install.  Although I am far from a power user, I still use it for every type of organized activity, particularly logging and outlining functions.  I am thrilled that this forum is keeping it alive!  Chris
