Introduction

myNotes is a database system that keeps track of user's notes. These notes may hold text, an image or media file, information about persons, web links, a due date and other information. They can be categorised and organised in sets, and they can be linked to each other arbitrarily.

myNotes is a personal database. It was developed with FileMaker 9.0 software and is available in the form of a native FileMaker database (you need FileMaker to use it) or as a stand-alone ("runtime") version that can be used on Windows and MacOSX computers. "Personal" means that myNotes is not meant to be used in a networked environment, for example as the central database for a workgroup. It may be possible to use it that way, but it is likely that you will run into restrictions or even problems when you use it for tasks it was not written for.

Please take note of the copyright and licensing information below. To install and use the software, please proceed to the Quick-Start Guide.
