But I had to stop bidding on record auctions because I kept winning the same records over and over again. Did it again 2 weeks ago. I solved this problem by starting and keeping a data base of what I bought.  With records, I list title and number.  If I see

Are you using a particular software that's geared for cataloguing, or standard applications like Word or Excel? I think this may have been discussed on this forum before, but perhaps there are current favorite methods. Andy On Dec 13, 2010, at 10:00 AM, Dennis Back wrote: But I had to
