Yes, I thought the databrowser option had already been mentioned. I  
thought Steve might have been requesting a databrowser demo which I  
don't have time for right at the moment. However, I know someone with  
a tool that could put this together in heart beat. ;-)

Yes, since a databrowser allows virtually unlimited numbers of  
columns and rows,  and also provides basic hierarchical tools to  
manage data, there are many ways to design this. I don't know Joe's  
actual requirements but it is conceivable that multiple columns would  
be a good choice.

Don't know anything about this. Like usual,  you are ahead of me.
