This is a general purpose database that is extremely customizable and requires very little space to run efficiently. I even ran the program from a floppy disk with another program installed on it! With this in mind, if you have an older system or just want something that won't eat your hard drive up consider this program.

The preinstalled categories are movies, addresses, music, password keeper, and oldies. More categories can be easily added and the fields customized as you need. I see the biggest use of this program for someone who owns a small video rental store or maybe someone who does mobile DJ work. These type of people need to know where to find titles quickly by title and location but do not need a full fledged commercial program costing much more and using more resources.

Since this is a DOS based program there is a small learning curve but it shouldn't be overwhelming. Also, since your entire database will probably fit onto one floppy disk with the program you can easily make other copies and/or take just the disk with you when you are on the road. There is no need to reinstall the program on another computer in order to read your files.
