Dick, there are different ways of going about things and I'm not saying this is the right choice but in relation to what I've suggested, and in what we went through before, your comments aren't making any sense.

Believe it or not, content isn't the problem.

I'm not convinced it's not a problem but we will see when the new version is out.

And the thought of having different databases for online and stand-alone makes Susan and I shudder to the extent that I fear for the integrity of our home.

That is precicesly what you have now. The suggestion is to reduce this to one but to update the online and forget your stand alone one. This, should you wish, makes it easy to have a trused group of editors - a reduction in work load, not an increase.

The search capability of the online version is, IMO, pathetic.

That could be improved.

It's NOT simpler to just update the online version; it's much more difficult than it is to create a new stand-alone one, and then convert that to HTML.

Takes me about 30 seconds for me to generate a separate html page for each song, cross ref links to keywords, etc. It is not difficult from an SQL database.

The online DT is really a bastardized version of the real DT; created solely because, in the early days, Max had lots of storage space but had problems with processing time due to limited bandwidth. This, hopefully, will not be a limitation in the future.

Please explain.
