[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 2999899, member: 10461"]Yes, but the idea for me was to have all those entry fields there (redundant though it seems) so I would remember to include that information. You'd be surprised how often I'd forget to include the composition or diameter or a catalog variety or whatever, when I used a more freeform approach, as seen in my 2007 inserts from my previous post. There's probably a way to create a template to prompt one to enter each bit of information, where the prompts (like "obverse", "reverse", etc.) disappear after you type the info in that field. So far, however, my prowess in MS Word is insufficient and I have not had a satisfactory result with this. Besides, I kind of like the uniformity of my left-hand columns, redundant and repetitive though they may be. You're right, though- they're not necessary for one's personal collection. However, I plan to also use these same tags in my World coin sales inventory. And for that, I like everything spelled out.[/QUOTE]
