The first thing you notice about Nathan's place is that everything
always seems to be exactly in the right place. How does he do it?
When it comes to cooking and nutrition, Nathan uses The
Compleat Botanica to research and categorize his home grown fruits
and vegetables according to their vitamins and minerals.

Q: Why does a different set of fonts show in the report layout?
A:
The list of fonts that are available for use when printing reports is
dependant upon the currently selected printer. If the list of fonts
appears too short, be sure that you've selected a printer other than
"generic / text only". See the full story.

Q: I am trying not to use Microsoft products. If
you remove the dependency on Microsoft Internet Explorer and Microsoft
SQL Server Desktop Engine, maybe I'll consider your software.
A: Microsoft Internet Explorer has been freely available since
1995. In fact, it has been pre-installed on every new
personal computer using any of the Windows operating systems since
1998. It coexists with other browsers and does not need to
be used as a browser per se. The requirement for its
installation is simply to allow for the proper installation of the
DLL's and custom controls used by for the HTML Help utility used
by The Compleat Botanica.
Microsoft SQL Server Desktop Engine is also freely
distributed. It is simply the best embedded database for
optimized queries and very large databases running on the Windows
platform.

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.
To see details for all of these operations, see the
Index to database topics.
