1. Convert HyperCard "Address" stacks from the Macintosh to the PC 2. Provide the ability to create, delete, modify, and search cards 3. Provide the ability to print a single card or to print an entire report of cards within the stack

If you have a solution to this problem, please post your solution or
send me an email.  I am willing to pay a reasonable price for an
off-the-shelf solution, but I am reluctant to engage in a consulting
contract to do customized work.  I would prefer to use a standard
vendor product.
Thanks,

Hi Roy,

Revolution can do what you want, but it is a programming environment - not a ready-to-use database - so it won't do it without a bit of work from either you or someone else. If you wanted to do it yourself, there are a large number of people on this list who are always ready to help with suggestions, advice, problem-solving etc. If you decide Revolution is the way to go but you don't want to do it yourself, then there are people who you can hire (myself included) to do it for you. However neither of these options gives you an off-the-shelf solution. If that is what you want, maybe you should write an exporter for your HyperCard addresses and buy a commercial database like FileMaker that can read in your old records and will (I think) be able to print, edit, search etc. immediately. It won't give you the flexibility of Revolution but you may find it more comfortable.

Cheers,
Sarah
