I have thought, as Jack Breen says, that Microsoft Access would
be an effective database for music roll inventories.  Setting up
your first MS-Access file can be a challenging task, even though it
is easy to use once that part is done.  Jack, would you be willing
to share your database (blank with no entries, of course) through
email or in the MMD Archives?

Those who don't want to invest in Microsoft Office can download
a free Access emulator called OpenOffice.
