Barry Takayesu,

I'm using nothing now, so I need to get something to help me organize
things.  I've seen the tape units and I know how expensive they are.  I'd
like to integrate it with FileMaker.

Ah good idea.  I know Avery has labels but they're expensive as well.  I
like the sticker paper.  Right now using inkjet.

Ouch.  Well, I'm using inkjet so I'll probably make a template and go with
the 8.5 x 11.0.  

Thanks for the ideas.
