Works on pretty much all OS's (most recent sony PDA for example) as a standalone or a plugin and is natively network chummy. Can be easily adjusted to connect with pretty much any database remotely or standalone without a lot of fuss. Mostly, it's a *really* small .exe once compiled. When I'm done, you can create, manage, edit, save, search, export and print across almost a thousand multi-field records - but the running executable itself is a single file only 700kb in total. Only 250kb if you use it as a plugin - but it's heavier in live ram that way.

Poke around the site - I've written it up somewhere.
