The ability to export data to an .mdb database is great. I works well, too.

Your naming conventions are pretty good, so I've been able to find most of the data I looked for.

Can we expect some documentation of the database to make this information even more useful?

An Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD) or equivalent and a data dictionary would be a great help.

A good addition to a good product.
