While I've been playing with postgresql, I don't know variations of the select statements well enough for this simple task.  It feels like using a sledge hammer for a very small nut.  I'm just looking for a small program that I as a single user can enter names, addresses and telephone numbers and retrieve quite easily.  Any ideas?


I don't remember which distro you use but there is a Debian package
which I use and works quite well.  If you don't use Debian I'm sure you 
can find it from freshmeat.net and install it manually.
