The novels are:

     By Ian Fleming:

	CASINO ROYALE			1953
	   [Also published under the title YOU ASKED FOR IT.]
	LIVE AND LET DIE		1954
	MOONRAKER			1955
	   [Also published under the title TOO HOT TO HANDLE.]
	DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER		1956
	FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE		1957
	DR. NO				1958
	GOLDFINGER			1959
	FOR YOUR EYES ONLY		1960	[5 short stories]
	THUNDERBALL			1961
	   [Written concurrently with a screenplay that was never filmed,
	    but eventually filtered down into NEVER SAY NEVER AGAIN.]
	THE SPY WHO LOVED ME		1962
	ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE	1963
	YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE		1964
	THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN 	1965
	OCTOPUSSY			1966
	   [Original British edition contained two stories and was titled
	    OCTOPUSSY AND THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS. The U.S. edition added a
	    third story and shortened the title.]

     By Christopher Wood:

	JAMES BOND, THE SPY WHO LOVED ME  1977	[Novelization of the film.]
	JAMES BOND AND MOONRAKER	  1979	[Novelization of the film.]

     By John Gardner:

	LICENSE RENEWED			1981
	FOR SPECIAL SERVICES		1982	
	ICEBREAKER			1983
	ROLE OF HONOUR			1984

The movies are:

     With Sean Connery (unless otherwise specified):

	DR. NO				1962
	FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE		1963
	GOLDFINGER			1964
	THUNDERBALL			1965
	CASINO ROYALE			1967	[David Niven]
	   [A spoof made by a different producer.]
	YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE		1967
	ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE 1969	[George Lazenby]
	DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER		1971

     With Roger Moore (unless otherwise specified):

	LIVE AND LET DIE		1973
	THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN	1974
	THE SPY WHO LOVED ME		1977
	MOONRAKER			1979
	FOR YOUR EYES ONLY		1981
	   [Based on the title story and "Risico" from the collection.]
	OCTOPUSSY			1983
	   [Based on the title story from the collection.]
	NEVER SAY NEVER AGAIN		1983	[Sean Connery]
	   [Made by a different producer.]
	A VIEW TO A KILL		1985
	   [Based on "From a View to a Kill" from the EYES collection.]

One should also note that a British tv (presumably anthology) programme in the
1950's called CLIMAX! presented a one-hour adaptation of CASINO ROYALE with
Barry Nelson as Bond.
	Also, George Lazenby reprised his role as Bond for a cameo appearance
in the tv movie THE RETURN OF THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E. He was never named, but
who else would carry a Baretta and drive an Aston Martin with "J.B." on the
license plate?
