The data on my computer isn't really what would be useful for me outside in the garden. I have hand made bed maps in a notebook that is more usefull outside. I am more inclided to take that out then my data base info. I use the data base for managing my irises, and my wish lists. My wish list is formated just like the data base, so I can cut and past info from the wish list to my iris list when I buy something. Then I can re-formate the information by sorting the data any way I want it. Ususally I like it sorted by bed. It's always good to back up things so you don't loose them. I am not good at doing that though. Some day I'm going to get bit!
