    Hi,

    TapForms is the best database i have seen for the iPhone, because i sampled them all. Congratulations! Only three things i wish for my full happyness ;-)

    1. A Bacode reader record. That would very helpfull for capturing all kinds of barcodes!

    2. A function who search in the iPhone adressbook for an existing gps-data and compare them with the actual gps-position and give a recommendation to autocomplete the record. This would be very helpfull for any kind of timetracking.

    3. Individual predetermined filters as dropdownmenu. For example i want to select all entrys with a special value. The requirements for the filtervalues are often the same.

    Thanx!

    The last request is interesting. I would transform it into a list of saved searches. Each entry has a name and a string to search for. And maybe a filter to limit it to specific forms.

    I’ve integrated the Zbar barcode SDK into another project that I worked on ( http://www.shoptoit.ca/iphone ) and it worked well. So if I were to add barcode support, it would probably be with that kit since it’s open source.

    Thanks for the links.
