Need to catalog stuff? Get WinCatalog 2009!

WinCatalog 2009 is a simple and straightforward disk cataloging software.

It catalogs any audio or data disks that Windows can access, which means that little or no information needs to be entered manually.

This application automatically extracts descriptions from zip, mp3, html and plain text files.

The program can also be used to catalog “non-file” items, like books, stamps, jewelry, or antique furniture.

WinCatalog 2009 offers a number of features that the competing tools fail to deliver, like the contacts list that shows which CDs are currently being loaned and who has them.

WinCatalog 2009 also offers a very flexible cataloging system that can display the contents of a disk, specific folder or a file.

It means that a user does not need to look through every CD on a shelf to find the one that contains necessary file or song.

WinCatalog 2009 is especially helpful in managing music collections, whether on audio CDs, mp3 files or a combination of both.

The program can automatically extract audio CD track data from CDDB, a free online database that contains information about CD tracks, like song titles, name of a performer, year of release and so on.

Importantly, WinCatalog 2009 allows users to assign keywords and add descriptions to each of the cataloged item.

All this makes searching through the database a fast and easy process.

Plus, different collection items can be dragged and dropped from folder to folder.

All data can be printed out as a report or exported to HTML or MS Excel files for further processing.

WinCatalog 2009 is distributed electronically over the Internet; free demo version is available at http://www.wincatalog.com/ for evaluation.

If you have any questions, would like to request editor’s copy, want to inquire about special prices for volume buyers/software resellers, or have a business proposal, please contact Michael A. Rusakov using this form.

WinCatalog 2009 (version 2.8) is released today.

Main changes are:

• Now it is possible to calculate MD5 checksum for files, however enabling this option will extremely slow down the speed of large files scanning. This option is switched off by default.
• Location field now available not only for file items and volumes but also for every item in WinCatalog 2009. The Location field has been moved from Volume Info tab to General tab.
• Due to new fields addition, the file format for WinCatalog 2009 has been changed. WinCatalog 2009 will open all collection files created with any previous version of WinCatalog, but a previous version of WinCatalog may not open the collection file in the new format. Please make a backup copy of all your existing collection files before using the new version.
• Now it is possible to expand and collapse tree branches using popup menu.
• Scanning report dialog now contains “Updated” tab in additional to “Added” and “Deleted” tabs.
• Now it is possible to keep Report dialog open on generating a report.
• The ability to exclude “leaf” items from reports: it is possible to exclude files, archive and/or empty folders.
• Specific property page for user properties in the main window.
• The ability to backup a collection file before save by adding “BackupX” (where X is a number) word to the filename. The most recent backup file has no number at all. You can configure this feature in the Auto Backup tab of the Program Options dialog box.
