Thanks everyone who answered.  Because of its reputed power in GIS I  
would opt for PostGRESQL with PostGIS and an pgadmin front end.   
However I have had trouble in the past trying to install PostGRESQL  
and could never get it quite right.  I use a Mac with OS X, and it  
requires me to open two accounts on the operating system, and even  
following written directions to the letter, it never came out useable  
and all I ended up doing is taking up space on my hard drive to no  
useful purpose.  Has anyone else had a similar experience and found  
away around these problems?  I wish I could describe what was said,  
but it was some years ago.  After that experience I had been  
reluctant to try again.

Is MYSQL any easier to install?  Also, has anyone had success with  
SQL Lite Browser?

Thanks for the advice.

Kurt
