>As I have commented many times in the past, I have found nothing that
compares to Paradox for database construction. I use it for shells, videos,
CD's and other misc collections. It is relational and quite versatile. I
have also catalogued the entire Kaicher card collection, both by packabe
and by genus. A most versatile tool. I will be glad to sent info if
desired. I might add, Paradox is a part of the Word Perfect 7.0 package
which goes for about $50 and also conatins Word Perfect, Quattro Pro and
other assorted goodies.
Good luck on your selection.
