AskSAM scores high for its flexibility, its text editor, and its reporting features. It imports ASCII files into a text database format extremely fast and does searches lickety-split. AskSAM supports three types of database fields, and your can create columnar reports from them. the commend language could be easier to use, but it gives you exceptional flexibility."PhotographThis material is made available for use in research, teaching, and private study, pursuant to U.S. Copyright law.
