tcmHerbs is an all-in-one program which addresses the needs of Acupuncture Professionals as well as Students of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

The intended purpose of tcmHerbs is to create a simple, elegant and powerful solution that allows you to quickly access to your Herbal data whether at the office, home, or on the run.

This software includes two great packages:

• The first package is a Windows desktop version of tcmHerbs for Importing, Entering / Modifying information related to individual Herbs. This package allows you to Import your data from existing files and Export your Desktop database to tcmHerbs for Android. The desktop version enables you to quickly enter, change, add, delete and modify information using your regular desktop or laptop PC. If you are computer savvy and already have external data ready to import into tcmHerbs, the Desktop version allows importing from a Text file or Word Document (template included). This new edition also adds Multi-Keyword Search capabilities that provides results by scouring your database for related or unrelated keywords. Visit tcmHerbs 4 for Windows to learn more about the included Windows Desktop version.
• The second package is for Android. It includes many features that are not found in any other Android Herbal software program to date. This package can be installed on your Android 2.0 or higher device and allows you to not only access your tcmHerbs database but also allows viewing of each herb picture along with Multi-search capabilities to quickly find what you are looking for. When using Desktop tcmHerbs you are 3 mouse clicks away from seamlessly exporting your database to your Android device for use with tcmHerbs for Android.

As you can see, these two packages are comprehensive and yet completely expandable. Imagine what you can do.
