I don't have a bobbin inventory, but I do have a book inventory, in a Mac database built in HyperCard. You could use Access, or Excel. The database makes it a bit easier to select by the contents of various fields, and you can do pretty entry screens. My address book for Christmas cards is in a Mac database called FileMaker. We've got over 3,500 books, so the odds of buying the same one twice are pretty high if we don't check. When I'm going to an academic or lace conference, I print off a list of relevant books I already own.
