Intuit's Customer Manager review

I've been using a Piano Tuner's Helper that I bought from a Journal ad.  Programmed by
a guy named Steve Hoffman from Michigan.  http://home.comcast.net/~pianotunerhelper/
It's not perfect by any means but it works
pretty well.  You can search several ways, it keeps track of paid and unpaid accounts.  It has 
preset fields for piano tuners and you can add several of your own choosing.
You can download a trial version that holds 25 customers.  Cost was $100 when 
I started using it about two years ago.

Dave,

Tell me what you are doing at this time for a customer database.   
Tell me what you want to do and I'll let you know it the program can do it.
