Re: paleonet Databases..



I have heard nothing but good things about FileMaker Pro 7. It is a Mac product but serves Windows also. It is said to be much easier and better than Access. The Collections Manager in the Zoology Section chose it and loved it for their collections database.

  Hi . Can anyone recommend a good , fairly configurable database program, to be used in the home, to catalog and keep track of fossils and specimens in the collection of an amateur paleontologist? Should be able to work on a Windows 98/2000/XP platform. I was looking at DB-2, but that seems a little too intense. Any help or shared experience would be appreciated.
