While I appreciate the recommendations of Excel (I have made up several for
my own use) I am not looking for something for myself . I am looking for a
program for a non-computer enthusiast who doesn't want to dink with this
and
tweak with that like one must do on Excel.
Thanks for your suggestion but I am still looking if anyone has any ideas.
Back in the better days of PCs you could find lots of great DOS programs
at
flea markets for fabric inventories but , of course, we've all become so
spoiled with $150 software that is absurdly license and write protected
that
those great little programs on floppy disks are now, sadly, obsolete.
