Thank you for your response. The link to past posts was quite helpful.

Hi again SherlockOHMS ....
Just wondering if you had any luck finally, with the 'Partkeepr' package I suggested??
(I know you said you were trying a few options with it's utilization, without success).
From 'NOW' sunny Western Australia... 8)
SherlockOHMS Ω:
No could not get it up and running. I've since given up Partkeepr has discontinued its upkeep about a year ago. I've played around with PartsBox, but does not satisfy my needs. I am doing my own for now on Access, but not thrilled with that either. Thanks for following up on this.

I tried partsbox, and while i like it, I do miss features not available in free version.I don't mind paying some money but the plans available are too expensive for me. Partkeepr is no longer maintained and developed and i believe the lookups to octopart are now broken.
I am now trying excel and octopart add-in. I would also love to know if there is any better alternatives.

Hi!
I noticed that BOMIST was referenced in the post.
Just wanted to share that it was re-written from scratch and it was just released.
You might want to give it a try: https://bomist.com
It's now cross platform and I'd say the FREE plan is quite generous:
* local database (you can use it offline and sync with other computers if you put it on a Dropbox folder for ex)
* you can manage parts, BOMs, purchasing, storage locations
* you can attach as many documents as you want to everything
* export every table into CSV, JSON, HTML or PDF
* write notes in markdown
(disclaimer: BOMIST's developer here ^-^)
I'd love to know what you think and if you have any suggestions they are more than welcome!
