Someone recently asked me how they would go about setting up a database of contact information for a charity. They did not have Microsoft Access on their computer, so I advised them to download Openoffice.org Base, . part of the free software OpenOffice. I assured them this is quite legal, developed by the computer company Sun and the US government. There are some handy videotutorials on the subject on the showmedo website.
When using Openoffice software it is always important to adjust the default compatibility settings so that your work saves in a format that can be used by users of rival software (i.e. Microsoft.)
Actually, if you click on Dai's photo on the showmedo site you can see he has made a lot of interesting videotutorials.
