Don't know if there is any difference between a database for doctors, and that for everybody else. The problem is, all SQL database like MySQL, postgres etc has a learning curve, and once learnt, can be easier than Access. On the face of it, M$ Access only seems easier ... There was a project on the internet for database for medical practitioners (IIRC, http://gnu-med.org). A google search will lead you there. It was basically a PHP based thing. The last time I visited the site a few months ago, they were shifting from a MySQL backend to postgres. Have not seen it of late. If you are familiar with dBase-III+ or Fox/ Clipper, there was an app called "Max for Linux" linked on freshmeat. This prov- ides a clipper type compiler for Linux with dbf access. It is not SQL though, and you need to know some dBase programming. The last download I did in July 2k1 was about 3+ mb.
