>I have about 4000 articles on file. My son helped me develop a program on the >computer (Filesaver) for it. The better program was on our CPU machine, but I >am "making do" now that I"m on a big MAC (Quadra800). I have a card file for each card. Top right corner has a number (4-digit), consecutively created. But each card is filed alphabetically. Contains key info like authors, title, jnl name, volume, issue, pages (inclusive), date. AND a brief annotation summary of article findings or key elements. Also up to 5 keyword cords (up to 5-digit numbers). In fileing cabinet (large!!) entered by that consectuvie number are the actual articles themselves. In the computer I have the equivalent of the index card with the keywords in number form. On a separate sheet (now 5 pages long) are my codes of keywords, entered in bold for primary listings, and non-bold indented for subheads. I can use the computer to call up by author, title or key words from title that I remember (when brain is not fried), jnl, year, or key words. Does it sound too cumbersome? Maybe, but when I enter, I do so one to 100 cards at a time and I find it enormously helpful. So much for my system. Maybe you can fine-tune it.
