1	Create a searchable database (S, P, E)
	Admin users may create databases that users can search through according to the criteria specified when the database was created. A searchable database may consist of pull down lists or blank text boxes in which users may type in values to search the database. For example, if a user was searching through a therapist-database for a therapist in Orange County, he/she would select "Orange County" in the pull down list for "Counties and Regions."  Another example: if a salesperson was searching through a sales database to view a certain customer's account information, he/she would search according to "Name," or "Customer ID," or "Phone number."  Creating a searchable database is simple. You can upload data from a desktop PC spreadsheet or database, or create one on the fly.
2	Create a data entry database (S, P, E)
	Admin users may create data entry databases as well as searchable databases. Creating a data entry database requires only a few minutes. An example of a data entry form is a customer service request form. Many online companies offer an online form for customers to request customer service assistance. In order to create such a form through HostedDatabase.com, the admin user must merely step through the Web Database Publishing Wizard, and then link to the database from a website. Admin users may combine the searchable and data entry functionality that HostedDatabase.com provides, and create databases that allow both searches \ and data entries.
3	Desktop data exchange: Upload data from desktop applications (S, P, E)
	If the admin user already has existing data in a PC desktop application, he can quickly upload the data into his HostedDatabase.com web database. Admin users may upload data from Microsoft Word, Excel, Access, Outlook, Notepad, PDA devices, any ASCII (plain text) file, or any XML file.
4	Web Database Publishing Wizard (S, P, E)
	Admin users may easily publish a HostedDatabase.com database on-the-fly or upload data from another application with the aid of HostedDatabase.com’s Web Database Publishing Wizard. HostedDatabase.com’s unique Wizard guides admin users to create a functional web database in under 15 minutes. HostedDatabase.com’s robust technology allows common Internet users to create web-based dynamic databases without any database or computer programming experience. With just a few clicks of the mouse, anyone can publish their data on the web!
5	Create a unique database name (S, P, E)
	Similar to domain names, database names must be unique within HostedDatabase.com’s Data Repository. Admin users must produce unique names for each database they create.
6	Private, secure administration (S, P, E)
	All admin users create an account name and password to enter their Control Panel, where they create and maintain their databases. Furthermore, admin users can secure their databases by making the database accessible only through use of a password. Thus, they may be selective in choosing who may view their searchable database or add data to their data entry database. This feature is especially useful for corporations that create a database to hold confidential data that is expressly for specific departments or specific employees. Within their Control Panel, admin users may manage their databases, update their customer profile, access their database content, and utilize the many webmaster features available.
7	Update and maintain database (S, P, E)
	Admin users can maintain their databases within their Control Panel. There, they may add, modify, delete, find, or download data in a database. The admin user may click on the "Update and maintain an existing database" tool within the Control Panel to easily update a database via a simple to use web interface.
8	Update database structure (S, P, E)
	Admin users can alter the structure of their databases within their Control Panel by clicking on the "Update database structure" tool to easily add new columns, or change column names, widths, and labels.
9	Link database from an external website (S, P, E)
	Admin users can place a link on their own websites that will automatically link to their HostedDatabase.com database. This is useful to seamlessly incorporate searchable databases and data entry forms onto their website. The HTML required is automatically generated in the admin user's Control Panel.
10	Search or add to a data entry database as a database user (S, P, E)
	Anyone may choose to search or add to any database in HostedDatabase.com’s Data Repository. Public databases are free for anyone to view, and people may find databases typing in a keyword to search for a database. Private databases require a password given only by the admin user of the account.
11	Download search results  (S, P, E)
	If allowed by the admin user, anyone who accesses a HostedDatabase.com database can download the results of their searches to a desktop PC application. Through this feature, a business executive, for example, would be able to download the results of a search for contact information on all of the investment banking firms in Santa Monica, California.
12	Customized look-and-feel (P, E)
	Premium and Enterprise accounts may customize their data entry, search criteria and results pages. HostedDatabase.com allows Premium and Enterprise accounts to add a logo and eliminate nearly all HostedDatabase.com branding and banner advertisements. NOTE: removal of the "Database Powered by eCriteria" text link at the bottom of search results pages requires special pricing.
13	Generate HTML form template code (P, E)
	Premium and Enterprise accounts may further customize their HostedDatabase.com web forms and smoothly integrate data entry forms and search criteria forms into their websites by modifying the HTML code that HostedDatabase.com generates for Premium and Enterprise accounts. Using your favorite HTML editor, Premium and Enterprise admin user can copy/paste the generated HTML code to their web server, and then alter the code to customize the appearance of their HostedDatabase.com database according to their website. Using the generated HTML code and an HTML editor, Premium and Enterprise admin users can add their own custom label search buttons, logo, and text.
14	XML Upload and Download (P, E)
	Premium and Enterprise accounts can upload and download in Extensible Markup Language (XML) for cutting edge communication between diverse business applications.
15	Encrypted data entry forms (P, E)
	Premium and Enterprise accounts can use HostedDatabase.com tools to create links or HostedDatabase.com configured HTML data entry forms that send data to a HostedDatabase.com web database in encrypted form so that sensitive user data is transmitted securely. We provide this feature using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol.
16	E-Mail Notification (P, E)
	Premium and Enterprise accounts can opt to receive e-mail notifications whenever someone adds an entry to their web forms. This is useful for admin users that want up-to-the-minute notifications of new records posted to their database.
17	Create database emails (P, E)
	Premium and Enterprise accounts can create sophisticated database emails to keep in touch with clients, vendors, and prospects via interactive email. By embedding search and data entry forms on HTML emails, you can offer important data through the convenience of emails, and people can easily provide data from a web form without going to a website.
18	Allow users access to their records (E)
	Enterprise admin users may optionally allow users of their database access to only their own records. This means you can create a secure data sharing environment where users can come back and modify, delete, or add new records.
19	Create and assign users for a database (E)
	Each Enterprise database has its own set of users which the admin user may define. You may also allow new users to create their own user account for the database.
20	Require users to login to database (E)
	An Enterprise database may have both authenticated and anonymous users. Authenticated users must first login to the database in order to gain access, while anonymous users may search or add records to the database without logging in.
21	Customize user login form (E)
	HostedDatabase.com Enterprise accounts automatically generate HTML form code for the database user login page. You may modify this code to match the design of your website.
22	Customize user registration form (E)
	HostedDatabase.com Enterprise accounts automatically generate HTML form code for the new database user registration page. You may modify this code to match the design of your website.
23	Assign database and user level access privileges (E)
	Enterprise databases enjoy expanded user access privileges. Admin users may specify global database access privileges as well as user specific privileges. For example, general users may only add new records, but specific users may also modify, and delete records.
24	Provide multiple access groups (E)
	Enterprise databases are attractive to corporate departments because you may assign different access privileges to different groups of users. For instance, supervisor users may access all records, and may add, modify, and delete records.
25	Provide website access security (E)
	As a by-product of HostedDatabase.com Enterprise, you may easily implement a general purpose website access security facility, where only users you designate may gain entry into particular areas of your site. Upon clicking on a navigation link leading to a secure area in your site, users easily can be authenticated before being admitted.
