Clearly there is a modest amount of information required for each entry. They would also like to be able to record a "picture" of some of the objects in the database. Any suggestions for a good database? ANy suggestions for a good storage device for all this information? Thanks. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - I program ... therefore I am. John Lefor University of Rochester Dept of E.
