Digital BW, The Print

Hi,
perhaps this is slightly OT.

However, we all have to face the task of keeping a database of our scan/digicam/printfiles and saving them to CD or DVD.

I'm currently trying to get through cataloging a hefty backlog of scans and would be interested to know of any programs or methods that people have found worthwhile.

I'm only using MS Works Database, which I suspect will make life more difficult when searching for files.

At present I catalogue my files by year-month-date-neg.no. and have all my scan files on one set of CDs and the print files on another set. This way I can keep the scan files at a friend's house in case of fire etc.

Any tips on systems and software would be most appreciated.

thanks,
Richard
