Thanks. If I can just get some clarification - I'm still in the
research phase of this and am very much a novice - I'll basically need
to hook up a scanner and scan the images, get them on the hard drive,
and im****t into one of the programs you mention. Does that seem
accurate? And, finally, will I be able to produce a list of the
inventory as well? Perhaps by title and quantity or something like
that.
