   Hello,   
      
   I must set-up an application with an Oracle Database running on Unix and a   
   GUI running on Windows 2000/XP machines.   
   The size of the DB is about 5GB.   
   The application will have about 1000 users and about 200 concurrent users   
   connected via a WAN.   
      
   My management propose the combination Oracle - ODBC - Visual Basic.   
      
   Does this will be stable and reliable enough ?   
   Must I propose an another architectur ? (PowerBuilder ?, Java ?, ...)   
   Does web based application can be cheaper (to build and maintain) than VB ?   
      
   Thanks for your feedbacks.
