I would highly recommend FileMaker Pro for the "pure" database aspect of the project. You can link your sound files via an appropriate "address" field (in olden days I did that with urls for images). FMP is versatile, easy to learn, easy to adapt and cross platform so that you can translate your FMP skills to a PC (should you ever want to make that change).

This is my first posting...I hope it works. Anyway, I need to build a database for a collection of oral histories that are being stored on a Mac. All I know how to use is Microsoft Access. Can anyone suggest a common database program for Macs that hold sound files well? Thanks, Rachel from Toronto. _________________________________________________________________ Be one of the first to try Windows Live Mail. http://ideas.live.com/programpage.aspx?versionId=5d21c51a-b161-4314-9b0e-491 1fb2b2e6d _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to mcn-l, the listserv of the Museum Computer Network (http://www.mcn.edu) To post to this list, send messages to: mcn-l at mcn.edu To unsubscribe or change mcn-l delivery options visit: http://toronto.mediatrope.com/mailman/listinfo/mcn-l -- No virus found in this incoming message.
