This fully interactive CD-ROM offers a wealth of information on Christianity in an accessible and stimulating form for 11-16 year olds.

Advantages: Realistic game play Disadvantages: Can become too easy
...going and a complete manual is available on the CD from the start up menu on PDF.
*****Installation:
The game could not be easier to install. The AutoRun program takes you directly to the InstallShield to install onto your hard drive by following the on screen options.

*****Summary:
The game will definitely keep you amused for hours upon hours if it is your type of thing. The game can get almost too easy at times, but if you follow the campaigns through, the missions will get harder, but at the same time, you will be getting more experienced. Priced at around £8.99 its also good value. See my review for Delta Force 2 also by Novalogic for a similar game.

Windows 95, 98, NT
Minimum Pentium 233 MMX...

Advantages: Ease of use and Functionality Disadvantages: None
...Access 97 is a very good database package for any user that requires to create ad-hoc databases. It has wizards that allow you to easily start using access to create simple databases to store information (ie. Names, Addresses & Tel No's). Once you have built your databases there are a couple of ways to enter data, either directly using the Table or by creating a Form (this presents the data in a nicely layed out form). You can also link to data from other sources, for example using ODBC you can link to data from other databases. Also built into Access are report writing and query facilities that allows you to create reports based on selection criteria from the data that you have entered. This is a good product....

...Access 2000 is a very good database package for any user that requires to create ad-hoc databases. I used to use Access 97, but I have recently upgraded, I cannot really say that the upgrade was worth the cost. Access 2000 has basically exactly the same functionality as Access 97, there are a few extras and the user interface has been changed. It has wizards that allow you to easily start using access to create simple databases to store information (ie. Names, Addresses & Tel No's). Once you have built your databases there are a couple of ways to enter data, either directly using the Table or by creating a Form (this presents the data in a nicely layed out form).

Advantages: in depth versatile product Disadvantages: auto database is poor
...mergecells and wrap.
eg format your cells as text so that anyone typing a tel number in that box doesnt lose the first "0" (01233467892 automatically is changed to 1233467892)
eg format your cells to produce £ sign or $ etc
The combinations in this section are limitless, this is just a start.
Tables of information
You can create a database in excel by simply writing a table straight on the sheet, this is followed by some commands which instruct excel that your table exists and that you wish to addto or modify it. That is a process I have used to good effect.
Excel does have an internal automatic database within it allowing you to create an active list or table, but this method is limited in size so don't be tempted unless your table is small.
The developers true option is linking to other software. With a little patience you can master...
