It has a nice easy to use feature that you can have a view where you can
type in a filed name and see the values for that filed and then you can
type another filed next to it and it will display both. and so on and so
on.  Its easy search function looking for a value either by field name or
position from and to in the record. Another nice feather was how it
displayed the data when looking at a single record you could have it cram
as much of the record that would fit on the screen.



what features are you missing from like a wrkdbf or dbu?
