GG, I'd sure like to see a copy of your database file to evaluate it if you'd be so kind. I'm also really looking forward to seeing your show & tell program when you have it ready. I'll bet a lot more people would be interested than you might think. As I've said before, Filemaker is a great program but it's what you make it. It can be an excellent, completely customizable solution but you have to create it or have it created for you. What you are offering everyone here is an invaluable head start!
