 Hi, I'm looking for opinions on Filemaker Pro and Panorama (or any other
 database). 

 One thing I'd like is the ability to subdivide a field of a record (does that
 make sense?). For example, for a book collection, I might want to have a
 possibly empty field that could hold the titles and authors of short stories
 within a book. 

 System 7 features, such as P&S, are also important. Search and replace on
 fields would be handy. I assume this is a given, but import/export of
 tab-delimited text is a must.

 Thigns like "I hate (Filemaker or Panorama or whatever) because..." are also
 welcome.

 Thank you!
