OT: Software Recommendation

[naiku]

Sorry for the off topic post, but I am struggling to find anywhere else to ask this (If admin/mods feel this is against terms please go ahead and delete topic).

So onto my question, can anyone recommend any software program that I can use to keep an inventory of my items? A little background is that I buy and sell all sorts of things, I want some software that will allow me to print labels for these items and needs to include (at a minimum) item, item description, buying price and selling price.

I don't mind if its free or if I have to pay for it, but am struggling to find anything on Google which has what I need. Thanks.

Why not use Microsoft Access

You can store the infomation into the table, and create a Form using the Form wizard (if you must) to create the layout of the Label you wish.

Hope that helps

Yep i'll agree with CBradshaw here, just get a copy of MS Access and you can then keep all the details stored in there, then just create a report that prints onto the label paper.

It'll take a bit of work to get it up and running but once its done it'll make life simple simon.

Thanks for both the replies, it's what I went for in the end. I already have experience with MS Access and so have 99% of a database up and running already.

Thanks again.

If you don't want to spring for the cost of MS Access, the Open Office suite (

is free and has pretty much everything that MS Office has, including a spreadsheet and database compatible with Excel and Access.
