[CAUT] Piano database

[Mark Dierauf]

I use SprintDB, which runs on the Window Mobile platform (pocket pc) and 
reads/writes MS Access tables. It's a roll your own solution, so I 
wouldn't recommend it unless you're comfortable around MS Access, but it 
has the advantage of maintaining a copy of the DB on my desktop, where 
it's handy for generating reports, etc. and in my pocket while I make my 
rounds. SprintDB is also pretty cheap - only about $75 for the ppc plus 
the desktop companion, which make designing and building your DB much 
easier. It's also a very robust little app, and includes support for 
subforms, which most or all of the other pocket db programs seem to lack.
