Access???? Last I looked you might as well set up a server and use Oracle
or Ingres. At least that way you can get at the database from any
computer, just telnet/ssh into the server from wherever you are. And
while your at it, I will get you a list of my parts and you can put that
on the server too. Oracle and Ingres also both have a Web front end so
you can just use a browser, or in some cases maybe even a Palm Pilot.
That way the next time you are at a meet and somebody says "anybody got a
whatsamabangie for a 1962 allblowandnogo?" you can look it right up. Just
connect to your database via the askers cell phone using one of the
cellular networks, pull up your web based database and say "Nope but I
got a doofadgit for a 1973 thingamahoosie!!!"
Or just keep 'em in boxes.
