But I do know this isn't a forum about Bento.
It is a database program, and it is made by Filemaker...
Why not??
Because Bento is not Filemaker. Since Bento is available ONLY for the
small segment of the market that has Leopard machines, few of the
current posters will even be able to evaluate it.
I doubt you'd get much satisfaction asking about Access on a MS-SQL
list either.
In addition, this list is not monitored by nor is it answered by staff
from Filemaker Inc. Complaining about features not included in Bento
here is like shouting down a well. The most you can hope for is vague
commiseration.
Why not do something useful. Become a Bento expert and start a Usenet
group called comp.databases.bento.
Or, as an alternative, just visit the official Bento forums where they
actually have a FileMaker employee answering questions which is quite
refreshing.
