There are none in Israel, and she is willing to go abroad. Any takers? Elementary Latin might also interest her. (b) A data-base that we are building of all known commodity prices in ancient Greece is made quite cumbersome by the fact that Microsoft Access does not allow us to vary fonts between fields, so that we must either read the Greek text in transliteration or record provenience, time, etc. in Greek. Does anyone have experience with a more appropriate data-base? Thanks -- David M. Schaps Department of Classical Studies Bar-Ilan University Ramat Gan, Israel .
