- We've included two Microsoft Access 7.0 compatible
- databases, FoxLoss.mdb and Dyers.mdb, on the disc. These
- databases contain some information compiled from Fox's
- Regimental Losses and Dyer's Compendium Part 2. The FoxLoss
- database contains a large number of basic regimental
- loss statistics. The Dyer's database contains a large
- table from Part 2 that details virtually every significant
- military activity in the Civil War categorized by state,
- location, type of action, and date. The virtue of having
- this data in a database is the ability to select and
- organize by any of the fields. It's easy for example to
- select all "Skirmish" actions that occured between two
- date ranges.
- The databases are a new work and are copyrighted by
- Guild Press, and may not be copied for others.
