hi guys...As you already know I run Linux...There is a stamp collection database that is a great little way to keep records of your stamps...I have included links for you Windows and Mac people...see basic layout below...and 2ND picture is when you click onto the stamp to enlarge it.(As always donations are nice but not an essential).
Robert, Does the export feature work for you on the Linux version? In the Windows version it appears to be buggy, going to a CSV file results in missing data. Going to a SQL file works, but only after a fashion. Export/import are two of the most critical features if I am going to invest long-term in any database app; I'll keep playing with it to see if I can address the issues.
Free? Please note that anyone who uses this app really ought to consider a donation. They have a 'donate' button on the download site and the expectation is that users should give back if they end up using the app often. Don
Edit; I only see a way to enter catalog values in 'euros'. I cannot find the configuration to change the default value to a different denomination. Am I over looking something?
Hi Don...Ya, my linux seems to have no problems running it, and remember that it was probably adapted to Windows and Mac after the fact..I usually use Tellico database, but not available for Windows or Mac. Robert
Don, just quickly exported one stamp to HTML format with no problems. I just over wirte on the ureos and it took my "$325" as seen below..
Hmm, the export is behaving oddly. I can get it to work but only after I force a save first, very strange. Yo are correct, you can type over the default denomination value but I was hoping to set it, along with number od decimals points, as a default. It is silly to put 'euro' in this field and it shouldn't even take any kind of alpha characters, but it does. It should be a currency or numeric field only.
Robert have you 'lived' with this database for a while? If so, how long have you used it and how many stamps have you entered into it? Thx Don
No Don, I have been using Tellico all along but was going to try this one fully for my provincial stamps...Smaller than my Canada stamps in volume. Robert
As I get into it and change the preferences, I will post my findings.
I'm going to DL and take it for a spin right now. I have a couple of decent free programs for my collection but while they're useful neither are very much what I'm looking for.
