[Nhcoll-l] Storing multiple determinations in databases

[Macklin, James]

Colleagues,

I am interested to know how many collection management databases DO NOT have the ability to store multiple determinations/identifications for a given specimen. If you have a field for the name on the specimen label (=original identification) and a field for a single determination, which typically is managed by most recent date, then this still counts as "DO NOT."  If you use a database at your institution or have knowledge of others that cannot support multiple determinations can you please send me the name of the software off list.

Thanks very much!

James
