Lee,

Great news! That saves you a lot of work to recreate the files. I remember you posted that yari a while back. It still looks great.

In retrospect, I could have done a relational data base instead of Excel workbooks. However, I know Excel much better than any of the data base software, and I can add or hide/delete information easily.

As far as allocating regular time, I found that was essential. Because of a time crunch to move back to Australia, I had to devote four hours a day for three months to get it done. The photography took a huge amount of time, even using a digital camera.

corrado26,

Thanks for the link. I will check it out.
