Hi Tim,
I may have heard of Filemaker, but years back. It looks interesting
enough, too bad it isn't available for Linux (but maybe I should take a
good hard look at the website just to make sure a Linux version isn't
available). My search did turn up quality Linux software that would do
what I wanted it to do, but it was aimed at much larger operations and
the price was prohibitive.
