What platform and development system are you using for your inventory
program? I have been contemplating a Windows 95 Delphi based inventory
database. I have contemplated making it fairly complex with multiple
linked tables (for example a parts database which would correlate
internal part number to Lego part number).

One thing I have thought about for my database is for every part to have
a default color. Additional colors available for use in parts would be
"primary color", "secondary color", "accent color", "window color". This
would eliminate color selection for probably half or more of the parts
in a kit.
Kit inventories should probably also be able to reference sub-kits (I
would do up most of the mini-figs as sub-models, also many themes have
some semi-standard sub-models, like those subs in the divers sets).
Allowing the special color choices to be specified for kits would help
with sub-models in some cases.
Todd - I forget, were we going to try and have discussion in
lugnet.admin.database?
