    Can anyone suggest software to maintain database information for a non-profit? I need to be able to record various pertinent info (name, address, etc...) as well as some other details. I would like to be able to call up information based on specific criteria and print mailing lists by criteria. I hope I'm making some sort of sense. FileMarker Pro is in the ballpark of what is needed by not user friendly enough for volunteers to quickly learn and use the program.

    I second Access, it's really easy and you can import/export with other windows products.

    MS Access is $229 by its self, and $499 to buy the office suite that includes it.

    I'm pretty sure thats per person, if you want to keep it strictly legal. open office is a free open source office clone.

    I use the FREE openoffice now!

    For years I used File Maker Pro, it was a MAC s/w first.
    So-o-o easy, so fast, so simple...but not free.
