(...) I do this too, to keep track of information like what sets I have, what I paid for them, what I have instructions for, and what's missing pieces. (I also split Theme and Subtheme so it's easier to filter on a whole theme.) I keep it in Excel, (...) (25 years ago, 17-Nov-99, to lugnet.admin.database)

| | Links to parts inventories
|

It occurred to me that it might be helpful if there were links to the parts inventories to respective sets in the database. It took me a long time to learn that parts inventories existed and even longer to find them on Lugnet (not that they were (...) (25 years ago, 16-Nov-99, to lugnet.admin.database)

This does, admittedly, still expose a false positive (...) (25 years ago, 16-Nov-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.publish, lugnet.admin.database)

Todd, Are the Pause set lists coming from your database now? If so, can you add the index key that you use to the comma delimited files?

This little instructions sheet (Tow Truck) turned up against hope. Scanned and sent it. Pause previously had a link to the other 372 (Texas Rangers) for instructions.

Some updates for the set database from info I got from a lot of sealed sets I got from 1979-82: NOTE: I'm not sure if the date listed on Lugnet represents the year available in the US or the year of the copyright on the package. The dates I've (...) (25 years ago, 14-Nov-99, to lugnet.admin.database)

I haven't seen anything that says "Futbol" in the catalog, and frankly, I don't think Lego would be dumb enough to refer to the soccer sets this way in the US. It would create way to much confusion.
