I am looking for software [freeware/shareware/payware] that would do 
the following.

Take a current database file like this:

[item_number,description,our_cost,selling_price,etc.]
{0001,toaster,10.00,11.00}

...and read this databaseit into a simple price-look-up and/or order 
form system.

The current database has about 10,000 items -- I was thinking of 
doing something with Excel -- but I don't have the time to futz with
making a VB program etc. [not to mention I'm not well skilled in that 
area! <GRIN>]

HELP! {Oh yea, Thanks Too}
