Chris I realize that this is some what of an old post but wondered if you are still sharing your database? and if so if I could possibly get a copy of it? I have tried and tried to make one but have had no luck. If not I understand. Thanks, James

Hey Chris- I'd love to see how you've organized your database. I'm a Mac, but if you can still grant me access then we'll figure out the best way to share it with the members here.
Thanks you for your kind words about iK and I'm glad you feel welcomed!
Scott
