Claudette Sigg of RSCDS-SF sold me a floppy disk with this information, probably at the Asilomar Weekend in 1992. I made a little Mac program to view it.

I created this web site from the same database. Due to the age of the information, some of it may be out of date. There are about 650 dances in this database.

There are many more up-to-date sources of this information. Just search for Scottish Dancing Database or Pilling Diagrams online and you'll find sites that have thousands of dances.
