LoL! Glad you’ve finally found a use for MS Access! It seems to fill in the niche gap between Excel and Oracle/MySQL/etc.

I think my gf’s company (she works for a small youth welfare organization) is also using MS Access for some basic record-keeping.

@ZeWrestler – well, that’s probably one of those borderline things. They would have probably benefited from something better than Access but I guess the fact they actually considered a database counts. ;)

@Nathan – Uh, damn spellcheck. I fixed it. Thanks!

Nitpick: it’s perl, not pearl.

You know, I think the records in my old boy scout troop were stored in access.
