[Healeys] FileMaker - was Parts Database

[Per Schoerner]

Hi
Well, OpenOffice have an "Excel" part, and a database part. I'm 
experimenting with the data base part right now for our membership 
roster, which we have on FileMaker at the moment.
And, OpenOffice is free, Filemaker cost a lot of money.
