[Coco] Hi coconuts, What's the best approach for doing a database

[Bob Devries]

I agree with Gene. OS9 Profile is quite a good database programme. I believe 
it is on RTSI somewhere (You'll need to dig for it).
I used it to keep a database of the Australian OS9 usergroup members, way 
back when that was still going.
