Out of interest, why not do the newsletters in HTML so they're readable online as well as offline? Or does it just not print up well enough, or problems with printing companies? > I use AW spreadsheet's and maintain a couple of AW databases, too. I'm a big fan of spreadsheets as they allow non-programmers to get close to custom programs. Endlessly flexible, although in the end they end up as the cornerstones to terrifying processes. How have you found the AW database? Is it able to support multiple users, or just a single user application? I was brought up on DBMS' before discovering things like Access, so never quite know the best uses, just that it seems they only really function well for 1 user. > It's a great program but version 6 in OS X is less so! Why? Buggy? or did Apple remove functionality? Hen | The next meeting of the Louisville Computer Society will | be January 28. The LCS Web page is <http://www.kymac.org>.
