  I need some help.  I need to find a program that would allow me to 

enter bits of data for future reference.  There is a lot of little tid-bits 


of information that I get off of these news groups that I'd like to 

store some place so if I ever need the information I could find it.  



This is a great example, someone asked how to copy a graphic from 

Freehand to Word.  It's simple - simply hold down the option key 

with the command - c.  Now, I know that because I read it in a news 

group, printed it out, and have it in a folder with about 1 billion 

other sheets of paper with useful, helpful info.  Now, I NEED TO 

ORGANIZE THIS STUFF!!!!!



Other helpful feature, either in the same program, or a separate one, 

would be; I have a friend who deals with antique foreign cars, now - 

when he buys a car to sell and puts and add in the paper to do that 

and he'll probably get 50 - 100 calls.  Now I could just put those 

names in a word folder and call it Jaguar and next time he sells a 

Jaguar, he'll have those names to refer to.  But...I also want a way to 

cross reference car and parts to each other - like a database with 

several different bits of info as the criteria.



Please help if you can.



Mucho Appreciato!
