I just used MicroSoft file for the first time this weekend. Overall I thought it was a find personal database program. The one big problem I had with in involved printing mailing labels: It just doesn't seem to like continuous feed labels. We finally got it to work by selecting the single page print option and adjusting the printhead at the top of each page. Has anyone else had this problem?? MS File is really good I think for beginners,It would be nice however if someone were to write a "bridge" between it an a more sophisticated DBM like condor or DBase III.
