Microsoft Word for Mac.
Excel for Mac.
They both work.

I use FileMaker Pro for Mac. Works great. So easy, a caveman could use it.

Re: Diecast Collection List / Spreadsheet

Wings900 not only offers an excellent model collection database, but they now offer a diecast database program you can download free. In addition, you can access the Wings900 database and download information for individual models into the new program. If you download the new tool, be sure you download the update to fix some early bugs. Go to:

Trying this one, like it so far!
 

Can we try with real bullets now?

I haven't tried the picture option yet, but apparently you can link to a picture of any size, then the program will display it at a standard size set by the program, after which you can click on the image to expand it for a closer look. (I also use Excel and HTML to keep track of my collection, but I like the ability to add logos, pictures, and flags in a format that resembles the Wings900 database presentation.)

Been trying this one fore a bit now and ran into a wall. Keep on getting a run time error 94 invalid use of null? Can not enter anymore models into the database. Contact Wing900 help but have yet to get a response. Anyone else come across this.

Re: Diecast Collection List / Spreadsheet

Had a quick look at it and it seems pretty good, but would have been a lot of effort to transfer my collection from thir on-line collection DB to this so haven't bothered.

Thing I liked about it though, there is nothing to stop you adding other types of collectables to it such as trains or Armour. Got quite a bit of both but just no record.
 

Ooops!

Yes. I think we are doing the Beta testing for them! They have two updates, and if you load both you can fix the problem, and save your data! (I had entered 259 models when I ran into the error, so sweated out the fix...)
