> What information do you store or keep track of on the cards?

Mostly just important address, phone number and emails for
contacting key people like a bookkeeper, banker, insurance agent;
just people I have to keep track of now and then... hehehehe

> What problem does it solve?

I have these database programs from Borland that are so complicated
you have to be a programmer of dBASE, C++, or Delphi Pascal and
then the smaller ones like in MS it seems that you can create an address
book but you can export the addresses to anything else in a simple
way without using a database format or program which boils down
to being a database programmer again. And, if I want to move addresses
from one Windows machine to another, I have to either have other
compatible address books or install it on two machine which makes it
either more memory on my hard drives, or more licenses, etc...

> Is this program in daily use by any one?

I switched to it when I figured out that my last one swtiches between
read-only and read-write and I could not figure out when it was or not
switched and lost a bunch of data I had entered.
