Re: Database template for Cub Scouts?
As per Ronnie's suggestion we've been playing with Numbers O8 and with great timing Peter's subsequent note provided the answer why we couldn't figure out how to lock off column names. We've just downloaded the Bento trial Peter. From what I've read Bento seems to be machine specific. I gather that if my wife had a laptop or some other portable device it would not be able to talk data to the Bento app on our iMac. Is that correct?

Mail quitting
Hi all. A new problem has reared it ugly head of late on my iMac G5, 10.5.6 2GB of ram. Without notice Mail has started suddenly quitting, as near as I can tell it seems to occur while downloading messages, size or type doesn't seem to matter.

Hi Peter, I'm not sure if it is possible in a single scan step but, if not, it is really easy to combine the pages in preview - just save all of the pages as pdfs - give one of them the name you want to end up with and open that file in preview and open the sidebar - then drag the pdfs of the other relevant pages onto the sidebar and there you go.

Bento keeps its database file (yes, it's a single file) in ~/Library/Application Support/Bento. You'll need to share this folder (fortunately in Leopard this is easy to do ), then set an alias to the Bento database (bento.bentodb) on the Laptop. The Dock would be the best place.

Re: iPhone car kit
My issue is that the coverage is increased via the car's high gain aerial which is part of the kit I had installed and the kit also keeps the phone charged, I talk on it via bluetooth which is integrated with the car audio system. Installing the kit cost a small fortune so I would like to keep using it especially when we take the 10,000 KM. drive over east every year.

Re: Renumbering digital photos
Hi WAMUG folks. There is also Exif Renamer: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/12577 I use it in conjunction with Image Capture (comes with every Mac). I set Image Capture to launch Exif Renamer (and then rename / renumber each photo based on specific criteria). Exif Renamer is simple, but very powerful. Using Image Capture + Exif Renamer, you can rename / renumber your pics before even opening up an photo-editing program...

Re: Sending iCal Events
I use iCal a lot with predominantly Windows users and have no problems. The Windows users some times have to look at their properties.

I've managed to send out invites to all my friends but I'm not sure whether it will work for all of them since I don't really understand how the system works. Some of them use hotmail accounts. Does anyone know if it's unlikely that my friends will be able to use this system?
