Bill & Bill, I too, have a few years of all kind of magazines that have
less and less value as the years past. I thought of the idea of using a
flatbed scanner to scan in the articles that were important to me and
giving the magazine away or recycling them. It is a great way to save
the articles on a CD or even DVD. The problem is it takes months of
free time to do that and then indexing the articles in some kind of
catalogue format requires another trick or two. Does anyone have a
better way?
