Thought I'd post some answers to questions I frequently get:
The database is built on the Filemaker Pro Advanced platform.
All data is exportable to csv, excel, etc.
The database can be used on multiple computers.
It contains all TAB metropolitan, provincial and country races from 1999.
Dividends are from NSW TAB.
Exports can be fully customised, in that you can pick and choose which fields can be exported. This makes it a lot less intensive and easier to work with data you want.
Here is a full list of the fields contained in the database, along with explanations, each of these fields can be queried (apart from the summary fields of course:
