"Would be fab if they allowed Export of your data."
Version: FileAmigo LE 11.0
Pros
Easy to understand, main records can have Sub-Data records linked to them allowing large text fields or multiple records (like attendance) linked to them. So simple relational database but hides the technicalities. Simple email features via copy to clipboard suitable for upto 250 or so records. Good help file and some sample databases included.
Cons
Watch out with the LE free version as they have disabled the File/Export option. All the data you enter will be trapped unless you upgrade or print out reports and then cut/paste it elsewhere. Older v7.3 did allow File/Export by the way.
Summary
Would get 5 stars if only they had not blocked File Export in this updated version. Would prefer a database size limit to this as I don't want my data trapped unless I pay for the upgrade to pro version.

"A step backwards, not forwards"
Version: FileAmigo LE 11.0
Pros
None relative to the previous version.
Cons
If like me you are a long-term user of File Amigo 7, stick to it and ignore this new version, whose interface is poor, and which is much harder to use. Exporting from version 7 to version 11 is a nightmare - all your previous settings get mangled, and you end up having to re-format everything. The tables look uglier, too.
Summary
Perhaps OK for newcomers, but for existing users, not an improvement at all. Stick to version 7, or risk damaging all your existing Amigo files.
