No problem, I won't submit them without LDraw numbers, as far as I can figure
it out. I do have some inventory entries that are multiple LDRaw pieces, such
as legs or turntables - how about I put in, say, "970 or 971 or 972" for a
standard legs piece, since that's the syntax Partsref needs to find them? Or
should I split them up, or leave them blank?
Also: I notice Peeron.com has part numbers for some unLDrawn pieces. Is there
a list of these somewhere that I can use?
Cheers, Heather
