Jo,
Thanks for putting together the .gif of screenshots of the Excel screen
where you keep the LOKK's library catalog.
http://www.xs4all.nl/~falkink/Catalogue.gif shows how to overcome the
problem Robin sketches: check "or" in the dialog of step two.
Brilliant - why didn't I think of Filters and the advanced filter tool to
narrow down the search? I use it at work all the time, even the Boolean
parts (and vs. or, the contains, begins, etc).
The best part about Excel - besides the fact that I've used the program for
over 10 years now at work - is that it's also on my Pocket PC. So once I
get my own catalog put together, I can carry it along without a bunch of
paper. I'm not sure how well the Pocket PC Excel does filtering - I haven't
tried that yet. Certainly that's some testing I can do to use my time
better than just playing Solitaire on it when waiting in line :)
It's interesting how some people want a one-page-per book kind of view, and
others of us are columnar (plain Jane, but there you have it!)
Tamara - Thanks for bringing up the subject.
P.S. Jo, your guild has an awesome library. I'd love to get to look at some
of those books! (11 results for Parijs...!)
Happy New Year all,
Mimi from Snohomish
