Mr. Hashimoto has been growing bok choy, nashi, edamame, daikon, and
burdock in his dooryard garden to the astonishment of his neighbors.
"It's a pretty small area so I can't have too much variety. Now
I'm ready to try out some of the Andean crops, especially the deep root
ones, just for fun." He likes the easy World Wide Web research
facility of The Compleat Botanica.

Q: How do I change the width of columns when I use the report layout tool?
A:
The width of columns in a report layout is automatically calculated based
on their widths in the specimen list. To change report layout
widths, return to the specimen list and adjust the column width using the
column header. Remember that a report layout specifies font faces, point
sizes, colors, and header & footer text. A printed report is
dependant upon both the report layout and the current filter. The current
filter specifies which items to print, which columns to print, their sort
order, and the relative widths of the columns. see the full story. For more tips see

Q: I'm interested in the concept, but the word "compleat"
suggests a British origin. Please clarify if the software is
applicable to my tropical zone.
A:
In fact, the software is an American product.
The word "Compleat" is not simply an odd spelling for
the word "Complete". "Compleat" is an
adjective for describing a "highly developed or wide-ranging
skill or proficiency" (The American Heritage
Dictionary). This is a quality that describes both the
software and the people who use it.
Yes, the software is applicable to all plant hardiness zones.

Q: How do I create, delete, backup, and restore
databases?
A: After you've explored the sample database, you'll want to create your own
database for recording and storing data about your plant collection. Managing your
databases can be done from within The Compleat Botanica or by using the Data Manager
utility. Both methods work identically for the four basic operations: creating,
deleting, backing up, and restoring. The Data Manager utility has several advanced
operations that may be useful for moving data between computers, fixing ODBC
problems, and restoring databases damaged by a power failure.
