The ultimate database program is Filemaker Pro but it's extremely powerful and complex (and expensive) and likely much more than you need.

If it's just a collection of text and numbers, with no calculations, then you shouldn't have too much trouble with it and should be able to use a fairly basic database application. It all depends on how complex the database is. This page (originally written for people abandoning 'AppleWorks') lists a number of Mac database applications:
Their database is rather clunky to use, but at least you can experiment without it costing you anything.įailing that you should be able to export from Access as a comma-separated or tab-separated text file, which most database programs can open (though you won't carry over formatting or formulas - only the results of formulas) so a certain amount of work may be necessary to get it to behave.
