Thanks for this, but this will not create a different database file, and this will not be good for my needs (it would be pointless to have "memory size", "number of processors", etc. fields for my friends! :-)) I need to be able to create different database files for completely different types of information, so that I could create a database file for contacts, another one for computer info, another one for web accounts, etc. etc.)
Any ideas on how to do this? Thanks, Angel de Vicente Ronan Waide writes: > On October 10, [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: > > > > Is there a possibility of doing such a thing with BBDB?
