Evan, you mentioned you were looking for a program to manage your customer data base. I suggest you take a look at Helix RADE.

www.helixtech.com

Best regards,

John

I too am a long time user of the Helix rdbms. Generally speaking, I'd highly recommend it. This is a great product if you want a LOT of dB power, but aren't a full time dB developer. It's the kind of product that you can pick up once a year and make good use out of... instead of text programming, one uses tiles.

Only small caveat is that it's a 9 application. Runs reasonably in Classic. Work IS proceeding on an X version, but my guess is that it won't happen until late Fall.

Evan, I could possibly help you out a bit here...

We don't want to use any Classic apps around here...

I'll be taking a harder look at the database stuff (thanks for the suggestions) after I get the new site posted. I'm ALMOST there. Doing it all in BBEdit with CSS, there are lots of cool possibilities. It'll be pretty plain at first (usually a good thing, actually), but at least easily expanded upon, unlike what I've got now.

Thats' why the site hasn't changed in a while - no point in working with the old stuff anymore. Might even get up toninght, albeit with some missing info and semi-empty pages.
