Yes, that's my pet hate, people using spreadsheets for storing tables
of text information.  :-)

A good, easy to use front-end (like Kexi may become or MS Access sort
of is) would encourage more use of databases.

I've been searching for a decent replacement for MS Access for ages
and still haven't found one.

My fundamental requirement is soemthing like Access' table view that
allows very simple creation and updating of a table.  I've yet to find
anything.
