Oh man! I've been using Access for my work for months and it just NEVER
occurred to me -- I can put "graphics" of my charts right in my database.
Although in my membership database, I did go and get the logos of each of
my members -- and it NEVER occurred to me to do the same . . .

Well, if you go someplace like Egghead, and you already have a copy of
Access 2.0 (or some other database program that would qualify you for the
competitive upgrade) it's under $100...

If you are taking a class, take that student ID over to the bookstore
and get the academic price now! It is so low that you will not believe
it. In fact, if you don't have the whole of the Office suite, you can
do it for *much* less than the price you mentioned.
