Mark, You might want to start out with a simple text file database. Use a comma, a tab, or some other unused character to separate the fields. With "sort" and "repeat for each" you can find or arrange the data however you wish. Mike

Pointers welcome. I'll have 150 to 200 cards in a database of people (camper kids in summer school, volunteers, staff). Each card has its card name set to the person's name. Contact info, attendance, performance notes on the main card in a main stack for each person. One day I'd love to store the data elsewhere and have it run on iPhone and Android, but first things first. I'm wondering how to set up a navigation system for finding an individual -- but also taking class role calls. Popup buttons might get too crowded with too many names. Should I do individual dynamic palettes on their own card(s) in sub-stacks? Wondering. -- Ta.
