Once Microsoft Access 2000 is released (scheduled for June), it will
probably be the most accessible general purpose database software for
Windows when used in con conjunction with the JFW 3.3 custom scripts. The
most accessible Windows contact manager at this time is Addressbook 6.0
from Parsons Technology (http://www.parsonstech.com), in my opinion. I
think Alpha Five version 4 from Alpha Software
(http://www.alphasoftware.com) could be made fairly accessible with custom
scripting, but without that, it's not quite there.
Hope this helps,
Jamal
