<VV> CORVAIR REGISTRY + database ?

[Charles Lee]

What format is currently used, importing it to a database format (MS Access 
?) would make it eminently more manageable, and searchable, and sortable, so 
that different models could be selected to provide the different lists, 
without keeping duplicate records ?

Does anyone who is doing it now know database, or have MS Office with (any 
version of) MS Access database ?

Database format is slightly harder to get started, but much easier to use 
once it's set up, and would give much more functionality than Excel (which 
is easy to start up, but a nightmare to maintain) with considerably less 
effort.

Any volunteers ?

If not, email me the '69, Lakewood, Spyder, EM, LM, etc, lists (in Excel, 
CSV, ASCII, Word, or whatever you have), and I'll convert them to a single 
database format for you.

Charlie
