I've been using a Works database since the early 90's. The file has actually transferred to various versions since the last DOS-based ver of Works in like 93. I don't use any pictures, but I keep track of things such as the packaging style, variations, number of individual pieces, and of course how much I paid for it. Right now it only includes my Kenner/Habro collection, I think adding anything else may prove to be a pain.
