Gene,

There are dozens like this. If you do not mind DOS, Professional File does 
an incredible job. I used it for dozens of years while on tour to handle 
direct PR mailing.

Remember this though. You still need to input the data and although it is 
time consuming, accurate and detailed information always pays off!

Come to think of it, I wrote one that was for inventory purposes, not parts, 
but the same thing by another name. If you do not find anything suitable or 
at the right price, let me know. As a programmer then I wrote this for speed 
on a 4.77 MHZ machine using a bubble sort I wrote. It akes up 10K! Nowadays 
that would be probably 150 Meg!
