Would be pleased to hear how your experiment works out with importing
AppleWorks data base into Bento. By saving an AppleWorks data base in
ASCII I was able to import it into Access. Haven't explored Bento.
Hope to hear some good news.

uncertain whether it would handle Chinese characters. It'd be be good
if it could input and convert Appleworks database files, I think I
tried this a while back, and it wouldn't. But I'll download the trial
version and see how that behaves for me.

Hi David
Have you looked at Bento?
It's very good for a lot of things and very well priced. (about $79 from
memory).
They've just released Bento 4 as well. You can download a trial version from
Filemakers website. I use it for some basic databases and it's great.
Kind regards

Sigh. So there is still nothing out there which can replace the
functionality of Appleworks database, and this will disappear with
Lion? You'd think someone would try to fill this gap in the market,
maybe Apple themselves with a module of iWorks....

Thank you for your responses to my questions.
The relationship between CS and Snow Leopard appears to be somewhat unstable
so, given the cost of CS, staying with OS 4 and CS2 for a little bit longer
might be the wisest option. See what OS7 produces.
Thank you for advice.

Just be aware that it will not run under Lion when it is released (as far as we
know at the moment). The current knowledge of Lion says that it will not be
supporting Rosetta, so we will have to say goodbye to those remaining PowerPC
applications some of us still rely on (OmniPage and AppleWorks are others which
spring to mind immediately).
