<p>[QUOTE="Plantguy7, post: 987299, member: 26605"]Hi guys, I'm looking for a good way to catalog my coins on the computer, and I figured I better get started soon before I forget how much I bought them for! Here's the dilemma though: I like already made coin software because of the nice interface and ease of use, but I also like Excel because of it's flexibility and capability to do what I want (mostly). Right now I'm using this program called Numismatist's Notebook, and it does its job well, but there's something missing. I want to to be able to have a column of what I paid for each coin and how much I sold it for, with formulas that calculated the total money spent/earned. My question is, if I move to Excel for those features, will I lose some of the functions of the other program, most importantly the ability to upload pictures, and categories for different denominations? Thanks for your input guys, I'll post some pictures of what I'm using below.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i733.photobucket.com/albums/ww336/plantguy7/Numismatists%20Notebook/coinprogram1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i733.photobucket.com/albums/ww336/plantguy7/Numismatists%20Notebook/coinprogram2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i733.photobucket.com/albums/ww336/plantguy7/Numismatists%20Notebook/coinprogram3.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>If some of you want to show some pictures of how you manage your collection, that would be greatly appreciated as well!
