Have you looked at the tutorials that come up when you start the app? These are very helpful. What is the data base for and can you contact me offline? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Estelita" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "General discussions on all topics relating to the use of Mac OS Xby theblind" <[email protected]>

Hi,
I have Bento, but don't know how to start creating database on it.
Can you please explain in detailed on how to do it?
I did a lot of database and spreadsheet in my windows PC, so I'm hoping to learn it with my iMac.
Regards,

Estelita

I have been a beta tester for file maker for Bento and like it allot. You can do allot with it and just playing around will open new doors to database management. Let me know if you have any questions. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dane Trethowan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "General discussions on all topics relating to the use of Mac OS X by theblind" <[email protected]>

Hi!

Just wondering if anyone on this list has played with any of these applications? I've played around a little with Bento but as I really have no need for a database manager at the moment then I probably haven't played with it enough <smile> but what I did notice was just how accessible things seem to be in the product such as tables, toolbars, buttons and good help tags for each, would anyone like to comment on this.

The next real treat I've been enjoying for a few weeks now is Open Office version 3.0, although the word processing application is very easy to work with it still needs a little work done to make it fully accessible however if you're just doing standard stuff that most people do in a word processor then this should be too much of a problem I don't think.

The first thing to get used to was the way that each new paragraph appeared in its own Edit box if you like but that's actually served as a bit of a God Send now, serves as a really nifty way to navigate through text. I've not looked at the spreadsheet application of Open Office properly yet, again I really have no need for it.

So there you are, my 2 cents worth.
