[Coco] Magazines and Indexes

[Tim Fadden]

Sculptor and OS9 would work great for this.  I  have set up several 
databases in sculptor, but have never
studied/tried transferring data from some source into a sculptor 
database.  If you send me a portion of what you have, I will attempt to 
import it into a Sculptor database.

If the field types/sizes/names etc, are not obvious, let me know that 
information also.

Don't feel any obligation, but I am willing  to spend some time and 
effort into doing the conversion.

Another good candidate would be OpenOffice the free and open source 
office suite.
