Hi Eddy:
 
Buy Wirt Atmar's QueryCalc, and teach its usage to your students.
If somebody has time to learn it, he/she is able to make very nice
numerical and graphical reports from a database. The program opens the
data base always in read-only mode so there is no danger of spoiling.
 
The other feature of the program is that it looks like a spreadsheet on
the PC. There is two level of recalculation: 1) with the refreshing the
query from the TurboImage database 2) without it, using the previously
selected data.
 
I had a demo copy of the QueryCalc which has expired.
 
                                        Sincerely
 
                                                Frank
