Editor's review
This is software that lets you keep track of your book library.
This software tool helps catalogue private and public books. It would be possible to browse and search books by author, title, ISBN number and so on. The data records in PowerBK can hold a large number of fields that include location, number of pages, publication year, and cover art. It is thus very easy to organize things the way you want. The application is password protected and data could be exported in any one of XLS, PDF and TXT formats. The built in database can contain an unlimited number of entries in it. The search feature available with the application helps find books very easily. The data base is backed up automatically for your protection. Thus once it is created, there is very little possibility that the data could be lost.
The interface is simple and is available in multiple languages. It is made in the style of the outlook. The main set of controls shift to reveal submenu items below it. For example, the book menu has new book, find book, book list, insert book movements and manage book movements. One difficulty found was that when installed an error message was encountered saying that the VI does not work and a complete development version of LabVIEW is required. There was no hint at the publisher`s site or during installation that this is required. You do not get a clue that this is required until you are trying to execute the program.
