Steve,

This is a fairly routine use of database publishing tools. There are a
couple of very good industrial strength ones (albeit pricey) for use
with FrameMaker. These are Miramo at http://www.miramo.com and
Patternstream at http://www.patternstream.com

However, PageMaker 7 has a couple of Add-ins (ODBC, Merge Records...)
that would also let you pull data from an Access database or Excel
spreadsheet. Have you checked these out? Is it inadequate for your
needs? You might want to have at look at the tutorials on how this is
done. See http://www.adobe.com/print/tips/pmk7boilerplate/main.html
and http://www.adobe.com/print/tips/pmk7mergedata/main.html

 There also are third-party tools that provide PM add-ins for database
publishing, such as Object Publisher, Babelfish, GalleyMaster.

I'd suggest that you start with tools for what you know (PageMaker)
and determine if they can do the task. If they're inadequate, then
look at the big-iron tools that go with FrameMaker.
