In the Hallmark Society, we use FileMaker Pro. It has far more features
than we will ever need and is very easy to learn. According to power users,
it is a dynamite programme for them as well.
We formerly used FoxPro, but found it much to difficult to teach to our
volunteers. FileMaker Pro is easy to learn, easy to set up and easy to
teach to others. It certainly gets my vote!
