The work on PianoDB for Institutions, was never released and won't be. However, the "regular" PianoDB can easily be used for an Institution. >I'm very interested in trying it out. There are 3 different versions of PianoDB, depending on which version of MSAccess you have, all of which offer essentially the same functionality. PianoDB (for use with the 16 bit MSAccess 2.0), PianoDB95 (for use with the 32 bit MSAccess 95) and PianoDB97 (for use with the 32 bit MSAccess 97). You can find out more by going to the web site http//www.dcalcoda.com and reading about it. Also available for free download are an AVI movie, Help File and InfoPack in MSWord format. PianoDB can be purchased online via the Secure D C AL CODA Software Store and instantly downloaded, installed and used. Many technicians find that they can do everything they want with the "stock" PianoDB "right out of the box". Others want to customize letters and fields, which is extremely easy since you have a full copy of MSAccess, in which PianoDB runs. You have the source code when you purchase PianoDB and can add or customize anything you want. So, you can save your time for tuning pianos and use the original PianoDB code or have fun creating your own custom database, using PianoDB as a starting point.
