The database is avaliable on CD-ROM, which although I have not yet tried
it, it will repersent a considerable saving in hard disk space.  As Iain
says the database takes up 65M.

The CarbBank address given in Iains post will also supply details 
of your nearest re-seller for the CD-ROM.

If anybody has tried the CD-ROM would you care to comment on any 
differences between using it and using a database located on a disk?
