The Bento Database Manager
Filed Under Bento Basics | 62 Comments
Update – 14 September 2011
The original Bento Database Manager detailed below should not be used with anything other than Bento 1. I was hoping to release a new application to work with later versions of Bento but unfortunately the project has now been killed off and I’d recommend that people use the database picker built in to Bento itself. See this article for further information.
The Bento Database Manager is a simple utility which allows you to manage multiple Bento database files more easily than you can by hand. It has been written using AppleScript and the source script is included in the download file along with an application file and a PDF user guide. The application file can be placed anywhere but your Applications folder is as good a place as any.
Please read the user guide before using the Bento Database Manager and please take special note of the various disclaimers!
