  freestyle sets
 
Todd, I picked up these two Freestyle sets at the new LEGO store in VA. The names are based on the receipts, so they may not be official. I know I got them for less then retail; I don't know the official prices. 4276 5+ Box w/storage 1998 801 pieces (...) (25 years ago, 24-Nov-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Crystal Crawler 1728 / 6145
 
I have two copies of Crystal Crawler, one is 1728 (1728 Aquanauts box shrink-wrapped with the blue undersea playfield) and the other is 6145 (in an Aquanauts box). Both were purchased at K-Marts in Georgia, USA. Both say 92 pcs on the box. The Pause (...) (25 years ago, 18-Nov-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Pause Set Lists
 
Wow, manual updates sound even more painful and error-prone than my procedure. There are 3000+ lines in that thing, I can't imagine checking every line for changes in theme, piece count and whatnot. I see what you mean, that the linking is what (...) (25 years ago, 17-Nov-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Pause Set Lists
 
I do mine a little differently. I just take the Pause list, print it and then do a line by line compare with the Access database that I use and type the additions in manually. But I don't do it weekly, I do it about once a quarter. There are several (...) (25 years ago, 17-Nov-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Pause Set Lists
 
(...) 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)
 
  Re: Idea for automatic Lugnet Set Database linking
 
(...) [snip] (...) [snip] Actually, you answered your own issue about the most convenient way to specify set numbers and eliminate false positives: check for "#" followed by two or more digits! This does, admittedly, still expose a false positive (...) (25 years ago, 16-Nov-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.publish, lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Pause Set Lists
 
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? I download the Pause set list and then use it to update a database that I use to track which sets I have and (...) (25 years ago, 14-Nov-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  372-2 Tow Truck dirs found, sent to KL
 
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. OK, I see Pause has been updated that quick. Yeah! Never mind! -Erik still faintly (...) (25 years ago, 14-Nov-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
