What is a good program to keep up with what customers have bought from me something i could put in there name and what they purchased can Quickbooks do this?

Quickbooks can do this but for a more mainstream program simply use Microsoft Access (2003 is the best one yet)

Actually, if you are looking for a program to keep track of your customer's information, Intuit makes Cutomer Manager, an application that integrates directly into Quicken and/or Quickbooks. It's a lot cheaper than Microsoft Access at $100 compared to the $230 of Access. Or, another option is ACT!, also $230, but the Intuit Customer Manager should work very well, if not better since it is made/published by the same company...

Access is really good and you can make some cool stuff with it, but it may just be easier to use a spreadsheet for what you're talking about. However, Open Office, by Sun Microsystems has both a spread sheet and database software. O BTW it's completely and totally free and leagal w/o spyware and junk. www.openoffice.org
