Sorry for the delay in getting back to you -- life's been a wee bit hectic

Well it was convenient, I knew the basics, and it was free (at the office),
which meant there was a lot to recommend it.  And, as a basic db, it does
the job fine, and I can easily export from it to my sig file program.
I was hoping that its Web interface was a bit more sophisticated (i.e., that
I could just export directly to HTML), but the '97 version has a few
glitches -- er, features -- that make it less convenient than I had hoped
(in particular, it puts each "report page" on a separate HTML page).
Evidently Access 2000 gets around this.  I'll have to try it out sometime
Real Soon Now in my Copious Free Time.

It's a pretty good one.

Why, yes, it's on the Quotation Ring ... :-)
