Hi all!
After I've asked a few months ago for your opinion on stamps catalogues
and received useful info, now I'd like to ask what software you are
using in order to archive your collection.
I'm using for years Paul Dembowski's (Liberty Street Software)
"CoinManage" program for my coin collection but I'm not entirely happy
with it so I'm a bit reluctant in using their stamps' software
(StampManage)...
So what would you think is the best software to keep track of your
collection?...

TIA

I like Stan's advice. A spreadsheet covering only valuable stamps is the
way to go. You are the best person to decide where "valuable" starts. My
first inventory list consisted of a Lotus 1-2-3 spreadsheet with three
columns: Scott number and two columns with x's for mint and used stamps
that I owned. I've gone to a bit more detail than that now, but
certainly not by much.

As to burning damaged stamps, I'd suggest tossing them or using them as
fillers until you can get good stamps to replace them.
