Database. You should have used a database from the start - they're much better for things like inventory listings.

just use Access - you can always export data back into Excel for reporting purposes if you aren't a big access user.

I was the inventory manager for a BIG retail company for quite a while, let me know if you need any help!

Database - Ha! QuattroPro does it just fine and is Excel compatible as well. I got to over 100,000 rows and got tired of holding the PgDn key.

A spreadsheet is the wrong tool for the job. If you learn how to use a database, you'll find it INCREDIBLY powerful.
