Book Database X ReviewLooks Very Promising - Version: 1.0.5, 11/15/2005 11:19AM PST

I have been using this in trial mode and will register it. I have a 1000's of books presently in homemade FMP dbs's. This program allows inputing most of the information about a book by downloadingd from Amazon.com, greatly easing input of data.

Some suggestions:

It would be nice to have a field for books that are part of a series which is different from the title. EG, "The Skystone" The Camulod Chronicles book 2 of 7— a series field so to speak— especially since Amazon is not consistent in haveing this info in their title field.

Instructions for exporting data from Filemaker Pro would be helpful. I have not been able to do this yet and keep getting a missing Key warning, even though I have included the <Book Database X Key> tag in the first line by modifying a tab export from FMP manually and saving as ASCII. Does this tag need closing, </Book Database X Key>?

Finally, the ability to add custom fields to the database would be helpful, eg number of pages and a have/need field separate from the category field.

Overall, however I recommend this and will make it my primary Book database.
