I Long for Filemaker Pro to organize my inventory & life.

Feb 13 2009 Published by under My Life

It’s like I saw a infocomercial, the way I feel about Filemaker Pro.

I am convinced that it will help me get my inventory( finally) organized.

I downloaded a trial of it in October & really loved it, but couldn”t spend the $250 plus on it. So I searched for a lower cost alternative and I found  a free one  but it was just too complicated for me. (lol)

Then I  tried a inventory program specific for Antiques & Collectibles- but  it was almost as pricey as Filemaker but not as smooth..

And now , I crave Filemaker Pro.

SO, Is it worth it?? Or should I just use a excel spreadsheet to inventory my Jewelry?

    I would look into an early version with the booklet. most data bases work the same, but I have used file maker a ton and it’s a great data base.

    Bento is supposed to be a much more user friendly version of Filemaker Pro.
    You might want to give that a try since it is quite a bit less expensive.

    Bento Sounds Great , but I don’t have a Mac. I have a PC but I swear I’ll get a Mac ( or Linux Laptoy ) next time,
