I'm sending this to both the list and to you off-list so you can reply
directly to me.

I'm currently using MS Access (98) and an Access application I designed
myself. It isn't actually 100% finished (there are a few minor details to
be done)but it is essentially complete. If you have Access, I can send you
an empty (no datarecords/phonorecords) copy of the database as an
attachment; I can also explain a bit about how to use the various features
of Access to create querios which will allow you to sort on any field of
the data tables.
