I have mine cataloged in Microsoft Works with columns for Title, Artist, Record Label, Matrix #, & Genre, and location, with the ability to sort by any of these. It works out very well and is easy to set up.

It seemed the trade papers "Antique Week" and "Antique Trader" had programs like this advertised. However now that I am ready to do something about it, I can't find any current advertisements for programs. Has anyone on this list used something and would you share the contact information with me?

To: "Phono-l" <[email protected]> Date: Saturday, April 4, 2009, 7:15 PM In 1919 Edison put these kits together to amberolize the estimated 90% of the two million home, standard, and triumph phonographs that were still two minute only. He did this to stimulate record sales after the great war. This particular kit was made for a home, these kits included the reproducer, the carriage, a horn rubber, the reducer for the recorder, a elbow adapter to allow a straight horn to be used, the old feed screw was to be used. I have a kit like this that came from Oz. I used to have a kit that had a model O in the carriage. If anyone is interested I can send a photo of a home that was amberolized, the decal for the 2/4 position was removed. Edison continued to sell 2 minute records until the factory fire wiped out his stock, no new titles were made after Sep 1912.

Honestly, I would recommend the use of any specialized software because it will make you totally dependent. I often had the problem with customers who wanted to save their data from a program that was discontinued for some reason. A document that can be edited by various programs is the best way to go as it insures future compatibility.
