Interesting, I'll save the link. If a user defineable data base and an improved calculator ever get added to that organizer and I have the funds when I find out I'll buy it. Not enough functions on calculator for the kinds of things I like to play with and I'm not sure the calculator is programmable either. The other thing about the data base is some of us like to define our own field names and be able to store info as we figure it out for later transfer to a computer. One of the kinds of calculations I do requires trig functions and for me can be pretty useful. As things stand I have that working on one computer in a program I wrote in Power C. x On Sat, 24 Aug 2002, David Poehlman wrote: > there are going to be more expensive offerings out there but you can > also get the voice mate from: > http://www.aagi.com > or me. > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Marshall F.
