Product: FileMaker Pro 7
Price: $299 list; upgrade, $149
Company Info: FileMaker Inc., www.filemaker.com

FileMaker has long been a leader when it comes to making small-scale relational databases easy to develop, use, and deploy. FileMaker Pro 7 builds further on this already strong foundation with improved capabilities for managing relationships, more sophisticated user-access controls, and other subtle improvements.

Compared with Microsoft Access, FileMaker retains a distinctive edge in usability. Granted, Access has the advantage when it comes to implementing larger-scale applications that have heftier programmatic needs. But Version 7 extends FileMaker's appeal farther into the midrange database space.

Filemaker Pro is a great database program that keeps innovating while staying simple to use. mjh
