Sorry for the delay - but your posting just showed up and you posted 8AM yesterday (that's what my date shows anyway). I have no idea why that happened. Welcome to the world of Dabo. Ask all the questions you need too. Dabo is a great match for creating apps similar to Access apps. I think Dabo is actually better than Access. Take a view of the screencast and you will get an overall idea of some of the things Dabo can do. But be aware that Dabo is not limited to just what available on the screencast. In fact I'd say if it can be done in Access it can be done in Dabo. Using SQLite does make your Dabo app portable.
