Dan Watkins:I highly recommend a program called Scubase. I went back and scanned all the pages of my handwritten dive logs, manually entered all my dives into Scubase, and imported the original scanned image of my written dive log (which has my instructor signatures for training, etc.).
The nice thing about Scubase is that it is completely customizable. You can use the default setup for visible statistics, dive log entry forms, as well as printed dive logs. Or you can customize it to show specific stats like Specmac wanted (SAC rates, Gas, etc.), remove items you don't bother tracking from the enty forms, add stuff that you do track. If you have particular pieces of information that you want in a printed log, you can remove and add whatever you want to show in the printed log.
After all your data is in the program you can create a .pdf version of your logs or a printed version.
Since I imported the images of my original written logs, they print as images on my computerized dive log, so I have the typed data and image backup. It's pretty nice.
And Specmac, Scubase imports temperature data so you can plot tempature against against depth on the dive profile screen.
It's USA based using SQL. You can download a trial copy from http://www.scubase.net/
Thanks Dan, I'll check it out.
