Is there a simple, freeware database programme, that I can use to catalogue a model toy collection?
It should be easy to use, easy to change field names etc., accept graphic files and work on XP.
I have tried Microsoft Access, but it is far to complicated for a beginner, also the Diecast programme from the states, but that is limited to 10 entries on the free version.

If you can’t get to grips with Access, you can do a flat database using Excel, or even if you have Works, that is simpler than Access.

Access is a fairly simple program to use, in terms of compliling a databse. There are wizards to help you construct the database and run queries and reports.
Spend a little time studying it and it should be capable of doing all you require.

Is it something you can just use Excel for? Are you needing to do queries and reports or just store info?
